I am currently in the process of rebuilding a wrecked truck. I have replaced all of the - brake lines - calipers - wheel cylinders, - pads, - shoes, - brake booster, - master cylinder

However when I start the engine the pedal still goes flat to the floor. I have bypassed the anti-lock system and still goes to the floor. I have bleed the system both manually and with an vacuum system, still having this problem used 3 boosters and 3 different master cylinders.

Am I doing something wrong? How can I fix this problem?

    what is your make/model/year of vehicle? Is it all stock parts? What did you use to vacuum all the fluid out? Welcome to Stack Exchange. Cheers!

  • If it's a GM you probably have to actuate the bypass modulator valve.

  • If it's a modern car the pedals may have collapsed if it is wrecked, which could mean you have to replace the pedals

    Did you bench bleed the master?
