Hi Andrew.
Thanks for the offer. I have something on tomorrow night I can't get out of unfortunately, or I would.
Jurgens has offered a hand again on Tues night though at his place.
I'll get his addy and if you're free maybe give it a go there?
Cheers mate.
So a "power bleed" doesn't require pumping apart from the initial std bleed? But you need to perform a std bleed first and obviously keep a sharp eye on the reservoir while running the pump.
And a nanocom just does the same as shorting the pump, just easier.
No probs. Just let me know.Quote:

Hey Kieren, Ron nailed it! .... I was slow in replying :)
You can also make up a 6m length of twin core wire, put a male spade lug on the ends at one end, and a toggle switch at the other end. Then you can switch the ABS pump on/off from under the vehicle at each wheel as you operate the bleed nipple.
All sorted! :D
Option B fix completed, ABS modulator back on in full working order, nice new clean brake fluid in the pipes, all codes in the computer cleared, and she now stops nice and sharp and in a straight line!
MASSIVE thanks to BST4X4XFA and LoveMyRangie respectively for the use of garage space and use of a Nanacom for power bleeding and other fault clearing.
The guys did a fantastic job in helping me get the brakes done and working again, they now appear much better than before, and no poxy orange dash lights on any more! :cool:
I've said it before and I'll say it again.....the WA-AULROian guys really are tops when it comes to giving peeps a hand.
And it gave Jurgens a bit of work out ready for the next pit crew challenge, even if we did find out his MAF sensor is now stuffed....:(
Many thanks again to all, not only for getting hands dirty, but also to other members for their invaluable help and advise on this forum.
Cheers,

Its probably easier to do it this way than with a nanocom,, not much can go wrong with just a toggle switch to operate;)
Is there a instruction post for the 6m wire method power bleed?
Do you just open the bleed nipple and run the pump, keeping a eye on the fluid.
