Brake warning light come on I park the truck next day. Mechanic say power booster and master cylinder are bad. I replaced both when the truck is off brake are good when I turn engine on pedal goes down to the floor. I cannot get the truck on gear with not pressure in brake pedal. Please help. My truck is a super duty diesel power-stroke 6.4L. Thank you

You must have the ABS valves opened using a scanner to get the air out. Here is a guide to help us see what is going on. Also, did he use a new master and bleed it on the bench?
