Lexia ABS bleeding citroen C5 MK2
Hi does anyone knows how is Lexia ABS bleeding done i know that you will need 2 bar pressure tank on the cap i ordered that kind of bleeder but nowhere on the internet is stated how will Lexia guide you, do you need another man help when you have the pleasure bleeder connected ? does anyone have to press on the brake pedal the whole procedure is kind a mystery to me, i know it will cycle the abs pump and ask you to open bleed valves on the calipers but is that all it or do you need another person or you can do it your self ?

Re: Lexia ABS bleeding citroen C5 MK2
I’ve never done it on my c5 mk1 when changing the fluid or calipers (always found that just manual bleeding the system has been sufficient) but I know I did it on a c2 single handedly, so would be surprised if it’s not similar?
Hopefully someone that has done it on a c5 can confirm for sure, though.

I need to bleed the ABS because the replaced unit when i install it was bone dry but i has no brakes whatsoever now lots of air in the system so ABS ECU automatically go to mute mode

Ah yes can understand that then - would definitely need to bleed it through via Lexia.
