You're talking about the thread that we are in now...Lucky was referring to the thread that had the "home made switch" to exercise the BPMV.

You need to look at who posted the threads and the dates. Same person, I just posted the earlier thread, and lionelhutz posted a later one. All made by sjbrothers.

You could also switch all the correct valves and then just go around the car and flush all the calipers at once.

Here is a much better post that showed the hydraulic circuit paths and how to wire up to the module to make the valves and pump operate. It also tells you which ones to operate so the pump would move fluid through the module. The wiring module the poster made was enough to do one wheel at a time. He has to move the valve wiring to operate the valves for another wheel.

Wow, thnk you Peter! That thread was VERY helpful. SJBROTHERS has proven we can maintain our ABS without the Tech II/stealerships.
