BMW R1200R R1150R/T F800 K1200R R1100R/T R1250R RnineT Message Board

2004 R1150R iABS ..I get a wig wag, (back & forth) both red brake indicator lights on dash after swapping a caliper that I split & cleaned, Cleaned & did not replace seals & o rings. This is front left..Are these lights indicating "Air In Line"?
Brake line was disconnected at banjo bolt & fluid ran out during swap till it stopped..(emptied line correct)?
I have been trying to bleed at the caliper(left) speed bleeder. Do I have to bleed the right side also?
I've not noticed fluid going down in master cylinder & haven't added any..
I've noticed a solid line of fluid once at the bleeder..
Do I need to add fluid at the iABS module? & run it like when doing the iABS fluid change?
Am I not being patient enough.
A short ride down the street & brakes work but iABS sounds different..& the lights..
Please No "Remove iABS" comments just yet..
Thanks for your help..

Wish I could help but I have no experience with the BMW ABS system.

You have to bleed both calipers, starting with the longest one first .

Thanks for looking out Mike.. AZBMRIDER, That's what I'll do... Thanks too...
Steve.

Another expert needs to chime in but I'm not so sure that you shouldn't bleed from the pump as well. I long ago pulled my system from my '04 but I remember using the clear fill funnel on the pump and keeping it filled as I bled the system. I'm not certain the front master cylinder fluid supply even gets to the caliper. I think I remember BMW referring to the two systems as "wheel circuit" and "control circuit".

Tower.. I'm thinking along those lines too..The line from the reservoir goes back towards the module & not directly to the calipers.
I think I'll PM the guru.
Thanks.

Got it done. Bled from the module. 4 hours.. Taking my time in & out the house drinking ice water...Hot one today..
Good call Towerworker.
Thanks all.
