rdpoint Posted February 17, 2022 Posted February 17, 2022 I have an 08 RX 400h, the bracket on the front right side had a seized pin, who ever did the brakes did not put any silicon on either pin. I wasn't able to get just the bracket so I had to replace the entire caliper. In doing so I changed out the hose as fast as I could but I'm sure some air got in there. I've bled the line twice now and still have the lights on in the picture. I read some of the other posts in here, and it was usually just air in the lines, but I can't get them to go off, the breaks feel fine, my wife says they feel slightly spongy, but the feel ok when I drive it. Any ideas?
RX400h Posted February 18, 2022 Posted February 18, 2022 Have you checked for codes? You'd need a code reader to do that or you may be able to have an auto parts store check for you. Dealerships and some independent shops typically have a tool to cycle brake control modules. I stopped self-bleeding my brakes when the process required such tools (even in 2001 for my Corvette).
rdpoint Posted February 18, 2022 Author Posted February 18, 2022 I have not checked for codes, I was hoping to not have to, and that a simple bleeding of the brakes would fix the issue. I'll see if I can't track down a scanner to read the codes.
