A couple weeks ago we had a front caliper seize up on the JKU - fast forward to today and I started swapping parts. I determined it was the caliper and not the hose because I couldn't get the caliper to compress at all whereas the passenger side compressed easily with a C clamp. So I only changed the caliper and not the hose, both rotors on the front, and new pads with new metal sliders. Waited for Erica to get home and then we bled the brakes together. Except I'm having a tough time getting the pedal solid. I've bled a billion brakes before with Erica and we have it down pat but this is the first time on a vehicle with ABS and a module that may have gotten air in it. I gravity bled it for a while and then bled by pumping the pedal and holding while cracking loose, tightening back up, then letting up on the pedal. I've done the passenger side as well even though they appear to have individual brake lines due to the ABS...but I'm not getting air out the bleeders anywhere.
Anyone had this issue? Do I need to bring it to the dealer for an ABS bleed/flush? There are conflicting stories online about whether it's needed or not.
