How to Bleed the Brakes?

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Checks and maintenance

To bleed the brakes on your car, you need to top up the fluid in the designated reservoir. Next, position a container under each brake that needs to be bled to collect the waste fluid. To allow the fluid to escape, loosen the bleed screw, which is generally located at the rear of the drum or on the caliper. When the bleed screw is opened, an assistant should press the brake pedal until the fluid flow stops. After completing the operation for all four brakes, top up the brake fluid in the reservoir again.
