1995 Accord Ex v6 ABS Code 18
Hi. I have a 1995 Accord Ex v6 with 33k miles with an intermittent (mostly on nowadays) ABS light. I pulled code 18 using the paperclip jumper method. The ABS motor buzzes for a few seconds and stops and never comes back on. I've read all the posts and watched all the videos I can find on the matter but still have a few questions.
If I just add fluid to the ABS reservoir do I need to bleed the ABS system? My fluid reservoir is full so I can rule out a leak.
If I bleed the ABS system to test the accumulator pressure do I then need to bleed the normal brake system after that?
I looked at the car and I believe I will have to disconnect all the brake lines from the ABS modulator to change the accumulator. Then when everything is reconnected and I bleed the ABS system do I need to bleed each caliper after that?
I've looked at the process and believe that I can bleed the ABS system no problem but if I have to bleed each caliper then I won't do it. I've worked on a lot of things but when it comes to brakes I am scared to bleed them. This is my son's car and I don't want to screw it up.
Any advice would be helpful. Thanks.
