Rear Brakes

[FireMedic]

I just put new pads on front and rear of my Rinny, and the rears won't pump back up. It has the caliper that you have to screw in. Has anyone had this problem? and if so, how did you fix it?

[Mole]

Mine did that everytime I changed my pads on the rear. After a while of riding and using the rear brakes they went back to working like they should.

Can you take a couple pictures so I can see what you're talking about?

[FireMedic]

I just changed the pads, nothing else. I never broke anything loose, lost any fluid or anything. Can't take pictures right now because I am on shift.

Did you happen to suck all the brake fluid out of the reservoir and into the caliper when it was not on the rotor and draw in air from said reservoir?That is a possible way to lose pressure.

[BIG_T]

The fluid would push back out in order to install it.

Don't I feel like an i-d-i-o-t.... The hose was pinched coming from the reservior to the master cylinder... All better now
