Somewhat a continuation of this thread, https://gdrvowners.com/forum/operati...is-this-normal, but enough of a topic of its own so starting a new thread.
This is what I think I know:
1) Use fresh, unopened brake fluid only.
2) Have a bottle with some fluid in the bottom that the hose from the bleeder sits in (to keep air from being sucked back up the line).
3) I'm going to use the controller on the truck instead of the emergency pull switch--much easier to control the actuator on/off cycle.
4) Start by purging air from the actuator first.
5) Then go to the furthest brake from the actuator, purge the air, and work my way forward.
Did I miss anything?
Just to verify--it's the TOP bleeder I loosen (and then tighten back up) while bleeding--I don't mess with the lower one. Is that right?
(Now be nice--remember, I'm an avionics guy not a mechanic!)
