When I just replaced my abs pump, I took it out for a drive to test if it works...Problem is when I brake lightly, I get an "eeerrr" sound coming from the pump and my brake pedal vibrates like their could be air in the system..But I Bleeded my brakes in the right order with the actuator connectors disconnected from the abs pump.Thats what it saids in the FSM..Also in the FSM, it saids connect a clear tube to the air bleeder valve...Is there an air bleeder valve on the abs pump, if so where????I couldnt find it..

Thanks

I bled my brakes following the FSMs directions (as you stated), and they work fine. I would maybe try and bleed them again, I kind of "overbled" just to make sure there was no air in the system, and since you actually replaced the ABS pump, chances are there was more air in your system before the bleed than there was in mine. Good luck.

bleed them again. you still have air in the system. sometimes it takes a while to get it all out.
there should be a bleeder screw somewhere on the ABS pump, but I have no personal experience with it.

others know where this bleeder valve is located on the pump?

look around. it should be on the top most likely. I'm not sure if there will be one there, but I would assume so.

Doesn't mention one. I never saw one either.
