Looking for video of master cylinder flush

[OC2003]

Hey all
My brake motor is starting to chirp so I've ordered a rebuilt motor with accumulator assembly. However I'm having trouble locating a good reference for bleeding procedures and. Was looking to the group for help. Tried search with mixed results.
Thanks

I go to the dealer any more for this service. They've got to activate all the valves in the ABS unit to do it properly and for this you need their special service tool. I've tried to do it myself with only moderate success and a somewhat spongy brake pedal. I just put on new front calipers and bled the system the old fashioned way (with engine running) just enough to purge the air from the new calipers and will be at the dealership tomorrow morning for a proper bleed. It's not cheap, about $150 for the hours labor, use of the SST, brake fluid, shop supplies and tax but unless someone wants to buy the tool and float it around forum members, it's the only way I know of to get a complete bleed. It comes back with a nice firm pedal and clean fluid.

If someone has figured out a way to purge the ABS at home, I'd love to hear about it so I can start doing it myself.

I once seen someone suggest one way bleeders work for the rear, I bought a set and put in my glove compartment but never went to use them yet. Gravity flow worked for the front.

Well my parts arrived today. It looks like its going to the shop for a proper fluid flush and bleed. I haven't found any tried and true ways to do it without a quality scan tool.
