I rebuilt the ALB modulator after having a problem with the brakes, when trying to bleed the brakes after the rebuilt all wheels bled perfectly only the right rear wheel it had no brake fluid pressure.
when stepping on the brakes for several times and trying to bleed the pedal will not go down at all.
I removed the brake line going to the related wheel from the modulator and also had no pressure at the modulator.
Appreciate your help with this.

It sounds like there is something messed up in the ALB modulator. You say there is pressure from the master cylinder going into the unit? If so then the unit is the problem.

Please let us know what happens.

Cheers, Ken

Hi,

It used to work properly (bleeding all wheels) u r right its the modulator. I wonder if you can provide any hints what could be the problem in the modulator since it was rebuilt with any pics that could help.

Note: the main problem was fixed ( The fluid switching from the master cylender reservoir to the ALB reservoir.

Thanks

it has to be programmed to the car then have a mechanic use a scanner to open all the valves so it will bleed properly
