I just replaced my master cylinder on my 97 Civic, I started by bench bleeding the master cylinder and then installed it. My Haynes manual says to bleed the AMS Hydraulic Modulatur using the bleed screw on it. Mine does not have a bleed screw, just 6 brake lines, 2 coming from the master cylinder and the others going to the wheel. Since the ABS hydraulic modulator did not have a bleed screw, I proceeded with bleeding the brakes as as normal: RR, LF, LR and RF. I did this with the enging off.

After this, the brakes still feel spongy. Since the instructions for bleeding the ABS hydraulic modulator said to do it with the engine running to build up pressure in the ABS system, I started the engine and tried bleeding it from the right rear wheel, but there was nothing coming out of the rear wheel. Makes sense since the brake were not applied.

How can I go about bleeding the ABS hydraulic modulator when there is no bleed screw?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Well in my alldata

for bleeding the brake system you start from Front Right/Front Left/Rear Right/Rear Left

Alldata is our program at school from all the manufacteurs

To bleed the ABS you need the Honda scan tool to open up the valves. But you should not need to bleed unless it was drained for some reason, just bleeding your brakes is not enough.

You can bleed your brakes, go out to an empty lot and brake like crazy (engage the ABS), then bleed again. That should be fine.
