Brake pedal not holding was the initial complaint by daily driver. Verified symptom complaint upon initial test drive. pedal did fade almost to floor. Checked for external leaks or component damage, found none. Brake fluid level/condition at reservoir was okay. Replaced master cylinder. Did bench bleed prior to installing on vehicle. Pedal still fades! Any suggestions?

If you have the correct scanner open all the ABS valves and bleed the brakes probably air in ABS unit.
