Hi all my ABS worked fine until the flexi pipe split from the reservoir and leaked fluid. I have since replaced the pipe and bled the front brakes, however im unable to bleed the rears, the pump will run continuously and dont want to pick any fluid up or pressurise, Any ideas please

sediment in braided low pressure pipe is the usual cause

Did you hold the brake pedal down whilst opening the rear bleed nipples? The fluid should just flow out without pumping?

yes and nothing came through

The ABS pump was working fine as i said the pipe split and i changed it, obviously it lost all the fluid in the main res, now pipe has been replace, topped up with fluid, front brakes bled fine no issues, switched ignition on to run the ABS pumpand opened the rear bleed nipple, depressed the pedal, and nothing, tried for age but still nothing, the pump is running continuously while trying to bleed the system. i have the handbrake warning light lit now and pedal is rock hard. Any info please help
