While changing the left front brake pads the foot brake pedal got pushed and one of the pistons got pushed out and the fluid drained out of the dual piston caliper. I cleaned it off and reset the piston back in the housing. Now I can't get any preasure to that caliper. Is there a safety on the brakes that has to be reset or what do I have to do. I reset the computer by taking the negative batt. Termal off for about 10 minutes. What other options do I have?

Hello,

The brakes will need to be bled using the proper ABS brake bleeding procedure.
It will require a scan tool to perform.
Here is a helpful video that shows step by step guide:

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
