Default 2006 GS430 ABS PUMP Codes

I have gotten my abs pump and abs ecu replaced, the problem that I have now is i'm getting Code 1246 (malfunction in master cylinder pressure sensor) and code 1343(Hydraulic System Malfunction(RR). I tried bleeding the brakes but there is only a trickle of fluid that is coming out of the brake line. Any ideas

you need a special module to activate the draining of your brake fluid.

There's a special procedure to bleed the system that can be activated by the factory scan tool. Probably about 2 hr labor to do it

That is correct Damiand, the reason for this is our brakes are special electronically controlled brakes (more special that your typical braking system on normal cars like Honda or Toyota I believe).

This will have to call for a trip to the dealership..... Although there's people here (look up user kuwupt) who I believe have DIY'd their brake bleeding.... I could be wrong though

MY price would probably be 80ish.... I'd say 100-150 at most?

You can take your vehicle to a Toyota dealership for the same brake bleeding procedures also, and it's probably a hell of a lot cheaper. You just don't get the Lexus treatment and the loaner car.
