How do you disconnect the ABS actuator to bleed the brakes? It seems to be on the passenger side firewall but I dont see any easy connector to unplug and the access is really limited. Advice? I hate to unplug the battery cause you lose the memory seats and radio, etc.

you don't need to disconnect it to bleed them just have some one pump them up 5-10 times and hold the pedal down then you unscrew the bleeder screw to let out the fluid//air. repeat until all air is purged from system. also don't let the brake fluid resevior run down or it will suck more air in. if there is air in the ABS actuator...which there more then likely wont be unless you changed a brake line on it...it will get pushed out through on of the caliper bleeder screws but ti will take some time

bleed RR, LR, LF, RF in that order.

See, you know what Google is...

Why can't you answer your own questions?



Great comeback BTW, I see you're still learning.

While we're at it, can we close the other 6 threads you've started about your fu©king brakes?

I don't know the history here between you guys and Kryogen, but I am here to tell you that I am sick of your childishness! It is a waste of time listening to your bullying and verbal abuse. K-man asks a simple question and you guys are all over him saying how stupid he was for asking it. What did he ever do to you guys that has led you to this continuing abuse?
