I saw a you tube video that referred to the unit (name ?) where ALL THE BRAKE LINES CONNECT as the culprit. The mech (?) on the video says to remove the unit to reset the switch in the unit. I'd appreciate any help fm anyone having the same problem. Thank you very much!!!

 

hard to say without knowing the build year.


post the link you are referring to.

 

To tech2:
I've got a 1999 Chevy Suburban, I just changed both front calipers and pads. I wanted to bleed the brakes but the left rear one won't bleed, not a drop of brake fluid comes out. I went online to check for suggestions, the guy on YouTube says the culprit might be the component (name?) where ALL THE BRAKE LINES MEET, & that it needs to be removed to reset the plunger inside to center, then re-install. He says that this component distributes the brake fluid equally to each caliper, & the plunger inside sometimes gets offset in the distribution process.

 

99 old body style or 99 new body style? post the engine size so i know which build you have.


if the vehicle has a proportioning valve a special tool is required to bleed the rear brakes.

 

TomFromGuam - have the same issue with the rear brake cylinder not bleeding. Did you figure out why you had this problem? As it the ABS?
