My brakes go all the way to the floor and I know my abs line in the rear is severed. Is that the reason the brakes go to the floor Mechanic's Assistant: Have you checked the brake fluid? And have the brakes been squeaking? It has brake fluid and I’ve changed the brake pads recently Mechanic's Assistant: What is the make/model/year of your car? 03 GMC Yukon Mechanic's Assistant: Are you fixing your Yukon yourself? What have you tried so far? I thought it was the caliber but that didn’t fix the problem

Thats why the pedal goes to the floor ..repair the leak and bleed the brakes thats the first step

Hello

Is it just the abs cord that needs to be replacedWhat does something like that cost
Automotive Expert
a caliper installed is usally about 300 dollars

Caliper has been changed. Is it the abs cord that needs to be changed or something else
Automotive Expert
cord as in the electrical harness? That will not cause the pedal to go to the floor..It has a leak or air in the system or a bad master cylinder

That was my thought also
Automotive Expert
Thought was correct

Thanks
