Hi, new to forum so please be gentle.
I got my first discovery a couple of months back as a project. One small job was to replace small section of brake pipe from caliper to flexi on both front calipers. On bleeding all was fine on n/s but on o/s got an issue. It started bleeding through ok no probs then once good fluid was coming through it just stopped, with the pedal going hard as though I'd closed the nipple. Back tracked pipe back to abs pump undid that still no fluid. Undid all brake pipes and cleared with air, reassembled and bled starting at o/s rear working clockwise. Got to o/s front and started to bleed through, until as soon as clear fluid starts to flow it shuts off as nipple closed.
The abs light has always been on since I got it but as it's not on road yet didn't worry too much about it. Did paper clip test and got 2-12 & 2-14 I'm led to believe this is air gaps on both front sensors. Pulled bridge to clear codes and still got 2-14 as a fault but 2-12 has cleared o/s front I believe. So tried bleeding it again it started to flow ok but than same as just stopped with pedal being hard.
Any help on this would be gratefully received.
