no brakes corsa

[craigus89]

jsut put discs on corsa and i seem to bleed all the brakes up and they still dont work any ideas cheers

[corsaboi90]

not bein a daft question but did you put the brake fluid cap back on? school boy error that iv done once.

Why would the cap being off make a difference?

Pedal going straight to floor?
Not removed the calipers at all?
No resistance at all?
What year is the car? Standard factory brakes?

What method did you use to bleed them? You don't need to bleed them when changing discs or pads.

when you pushed the piston back to make them fit the new discs do you remove the fulid cap as if not you can blow the seals

its a m red corsa be and no its has 256mm vented discs on the front and 256mm normal discs on the back

i needed to bleed them up because of putting the new rear brakes on so started furthest away from the master cyclinder working my way round, cheers for the help

are the calapers on the right side as a few people have done this and had the bleed nipple at the bottom

[debneycorsa]

why do you have to have the cap on?

[craigus89]
