ok so I have just painted my calipers and changed my front rotors. Now I have the problem with the brake pressure. I tried to bleed the brakes and that still isn't working. It also says my ebrake is on wen it is off.

 

[quickfit]

is any fluid leaking out of the brake lines? maybe your ripped a brake line when painting calipers or changing the rotor.

 

[chiochan]

I'm looking at it and doesn't look like I broke or tore anything

 

[quickfit]

when you try to bleed the brakes...fluid doesnt squirt out anywhere? you have fluid in the reservour?

 

[chiochan]

I have fluid topped off but I don't tink I bleed them te right way

 

[quickfit]

Brake System Bleeding
try again

ok so I was told by a couple people different ways to start when bleeding. Is it driver front first or is it the furthest one away which is the passenger right?

 

[quickfit]

its in the instructiosn i linked in my previous post.
drivers front
pass front
pass rear
drivers rear

 

[chiochan]

ok let me do this and see if the pressure returns to my beautiful car

 

[chiochan]

ok so I don't think that worked

 

[quickfit]

when you paionted the calipers, did you remove any lines? or did you paint them with the still atached to the car?

you should of never had to bleed your brakes from painting calipers or changing rotors.

So after you get done bleeding the brakes and you try them out what happens? does the pedal hit the floor? Or does it slowly loose pressure? Is there any puddles of fluid under the car?

i think your wrong, it's the wheel furthest from the master cylinder is done first.
pass rear
driver rear
pass front
driver front

mayb something happen to the abs, im not sure what can be wrong. check if your lines are twisted, not letting any fluid in the calibers

i think your wrong. i took it directly from the manual

no fluid on the floor

 

[hondagirl]

I would say you are doing something wrong if you have no fluid on the floor. That means the fluid is staying in the lines. So I know these are stupid questions dont get offended but we need to know.

Is the fluid topped off and are you making sure you are not forgeting to fill it while you are bleeding the lines?

 

[hondagirl]

also are you closing the bleeder before you let off of the brake pedal?

i had a similair problem when I changed my rear brake pads. Well maybe the same problem. When the car is on the pedal goes to the floor but when it is off it is solid. I talked to a very very knowledgable friend about it and he said that on hondas some of the brake lines dont allow all of the bubbles to come out all the way. He said the only way to get them all out was a pressure bleeder to force it out. I am trying this next week and will let you know how it goes.

+1 FL,FR,RR,RL Is correct as he stated, its not furthest away as it is on older cars. I believe when yuo're bleeding you're not supposed to touch the brake pedal to the floor. Right after doing it did you pump the brakes until yuo felt a little tension. Was you brake fluid ever low? Did yuo by any chance mess w/ the piston on the caliper? you can take it off the car and test if its compressing and decompressing. There was/is no reason for you bleeding the brakes if you didnt disconnect them. good luck, when you think you got it figured out, drive safely and slowly.
