attach a hose to the bleeder valve and put it into a clear jar filled with brake fluid, open the bleeder valve and have somebody push the brake pedal all the way down (you will see bubbles come out of the hose in the jar, that's the air in the brake lines), tighten the bleeder valve before they let the brake pedal come back up, and just repeat that till no more air/bubbles come out. be sure not to let the brake fluid level go down all the way otherwise you will have to start over.

have someone pump the brake pedal 3 times and hold it,slip a hose on the bleeder screwand put end of hose into a glass container and open bleeder screw,watch fluid as it comes out,when air doesnt come out any more ,do the other side,keep an eye on your master cylinder and keep full.but first, pump your brakes a few times to get the air out of your power brake container.
Yes , the " BRAKE " light in your dash will come on if the brake fluid is low or your emergency / parking brake is engaged
Find the bleeder valve on the rear caliper, locate the rear brake master, I assume DOT 4 or better fluid is required, or check with the manual or you Honda dealer for the fluid. The rear master should be on the side of the bike. Have someone help you for this. Check to make sure the master is full, slack the bleeder valve, have other person press the brake all the way down and hold it down, fluid will come out the small valve that you opened, close the valve, have the brake released. Repeat this process till all the air is out. Keep checking the master to keep it full. Keep the cap on the master when bleeding. Also, attach a small rubber hose to the bleeder valve so as you can direct the brake fluid into a container on the floor. You don't want brake fluid to touch the bike. Do not use the wasted brake fluid, it is no longer good. Hope this helps......Good luck
It doesnt matter whether its running or not. Brake fluid is hydroscopic, which means it absorbs water from the atmosphere so it has to come from a sealed container and your cars brake fluid needs changing every two years. Light yellowish colour is ok, if its a dark colour it needs changing.
Check your brake fluid. The light will come on due to low fluid. Or someone has yanked your E-Brake.
A brake fluid leak in the brake system, LOW BRAKE FLUID.
Check to see if the brake fluid level in your brake master cylinder ( in your engine compartment ) is low , if the brake fluid level is low or your parking brake is on the brake light in your gauge cluster will come on
A Vacuum brake bleeder kit is for a type of brake on an automobile. The bleeder kit is used to replace brakes. If you want to work on an old vacuum you may want to begin with the manufacturer of the vacuum. If you are handy with tools and can replace the damaged parts you could have a good vacuum for your own use for years to come.
No, the red brake warning light will come on.
You will need help to bleed the brakes on a Honda Civic. One person needs to pump the brake pedal several times then hold it down. The other then needs to open a wheel bleeder valve, and let the air/fluid mix come out until the pedal reaches the floor. Close the valve and repeat until no air comes out with the fluid. Then move to another wheel.
