Hey all I need a little help I have a 2000 grand am se1 that has no rear brakes at all I have replaced the master cylinder and had the brake booster checked and was told it works fine. So the first issue I'm having is there are 2 lines that run from master cylinder into a piece I now believe is called the actuator and the abs module is screwed to the bottom of this piece. I have fluid coming out of the 1st and last ports but nothing from the center ports which I'm assuming is the rear brakes is there a way to fix this because I have went to 4 junkyards and 2 different parts stores and nothing resembles what I have. I am so lost and I'm sure this all sounds confusing so if u need clarification to help please ask

How did you manage to bleed the brakes on an ABS system after replacing the master cylinder?
How did you command the ports in the ABS module to open to bleed out the air?
This is a video on a 2004 where they state the outers go to the rear and the center two go to the front.
 
That would make sense I don't think it's even the right system for this vehicle and I use the bleeding valves on the actuator to bleed abs atheist I thought
 
What would stop 2 of the ports to not push out brake fluid? Could it be the 2 solenoids on top our bad

How are you commanding them to open?
Are you familiar with bleeding ABS brakes?
 
I'm not familiar with them I learned growing up to pump and bleed at the wheels and I assumed that with the valves on the abs/ Proportion it would be the same way

Do the lines really make a difference on where they are placed for getting fluid to all

Even though the lines are in wrong it should still get fluid to all lines right?
 
The ABS system will never work correctly if the lines aren't routed correctly because it will activate the wrong brake.

Ok so if I move them to their correct location how do I bleed them without an expensive computer. (Just FYI I am trying to save as much as possible I was diagnosed with cancer in February and have alot of things I need to get done for my family)
 
I'm sorry to hear your situation but I cannt come up with a solution other than some systems such as brakes should be handled by qualified personnel at a shop.
