Where to go from here(Brakes)
Well got my pump assy mounted today(thank you Jason) and I did not have time to bleed them or test them much because it got dark. However I did drive it down my driveway.
There are no dashboard lights on now except when I press the brake the pump comes on and the brake light and/or ABS light comes on (seems dependent on how hard I press the brakes). I was thinking it was just a bleeding issue and then I started reading around. Seems the culprit may be a bad accumulator.
I am not going to draw any conclusions yet because I have not properly bled the brakes and the pedal is a bit mushy. I am just afraid that this is how it fried in the first place, accumulator failed and the pump ran 24/7 causing it to burnout. Now I am afraid I just spent 350 bucks on a broken assy
