Hi, just replaced all my calipers on a 6 yo redco trailer fitted with the sensa brake system. Is there a particular process to bleed the system? I have googled it and found some info on the alko site but it requires some sort of oem sensa brake bleed gun. Can I just bleed the system the conventional way with the car hooked up and cracking the bleed nipples?

Regards,
Brett

Yeh brett you can do it like that or you can pressurise the brake fluid tank with an air hose (I wrapped elecy tape around the air hose nozzle until it was big enough to seal it off on the tank )...only need a bit of air to get it to bleed.. handy if you have a helper tho

I just pumped the brake pedal, topping up the fluid as I went with the hose cracked at each caliper, one at a time and no probs.
