Your getting air in your system from some where. check all lines for leaks and re-bleed the lines starting from the farthest bleed valve first, working you way closer to the master cylinder. Do not let the brake fluid reservoir run dry while you are doing this.

Brake line busted somewhere? Is the linkage to the master cylinder intact? Master cylinder might have been installed incorrectly.

1999 corolla, brake pedal goes to the floor. how can we fix the brakes?

is the abs light on?the abs system only effects the pedal when you are stopping quickly to activate the system. you still have a hydrualic brake pressure problem. are the rear brakes shoes or pads? rear shoes out of adjustment can cause a low brake pedal.even though the master cylinder has been replaced doesn't mean you got a good part.if the part was a remanufactered part very likely it is bad. to determine if it is the master cylinder, plug off the lines from the side off the master cylinder and hit the brake pedal. if the pedal stays up look for a problem elsewhere in the system. if the pedal drops the the master cylinder is defective.

Sounds like there is a fault with the vacuum pump not generating enough vacuum for the brake booster assist, or a leaking vacuum hose. Try pinching off all the vacuum hoses to see if the problem goes away. Could also be a leak in the brake vacuum booster itself

Brakes don't operate when pedal is pressed. I get a hissing sound and the pedal gets hard. Engine speeds up when I do this.

your brake booster had developed a vacuum leak internally, likely the diaphragm. this is a sealed unit, so the entire part must be replaced. this is the large round canister located behind the master cylinder (very difficult to see and access on your van). good luck!

How to bleed the brakes on a1999 chevrolet venture van instaslled new brake pads on front tired to bleed brake pedal all the way up when van not running - goes to floor when van is running

Start with brake in the rear that is the farthest away from the master cylinder ( if your master cylinder is on drivers side start with passenger rear,pump up brake pedal until hard have someone else open bleeder valve until air or fluid squirts out,while holding brake pressure even if goes to the floor dont release pedal until bleeder valve is tightened or you will **** air back into the line,do this several times making sure you get a full stream of brake fluid and no air,continue to other rear wheel and then proceed to front wheel furthest from master cylinderand then final wheel. if you still don't have brakes change master cylinder and bleed all brakes again.

Brake pedal makes grinding noise and bleeds off

double check fluid.you have air or are losing hydrolic pressure somewhere. leak in master cylinder can do this. also vacume and air leak in the booster unit. double check bleading points on each wheel.

Brake pedal goes too far down. Brakes still stop car fine. Too much pedal travel. 2005 model year.

You have to check your master cylinder, pump your brake several times and hold it, see if is going down to the bottom, if does, the master cylinder is wrong, check the brake pressure hose, maybe you have some air in your brake lines, be sure you have enough brake fluid
