Dash lights up. wont turn over.
The brake pedal will be stiff if the vehicle isn't running , power brakes only work when running , that is if it has vacuum brake booster . Won't start how ? When you turn the key to start does the starter spin the engine around ? Or nothing happens ? Does the vehicle have a anti-theft system light lit solid or flashing ?

You may have a bad abs controller. You need to get the code for the abs light from a shop or auto parts store.

You have a bad ground somwhere. You need to check and look for broken wires or corroded connections. A good manual with a wiring diagram helps with this.

What model car? On my Cadillac the problem was the vacuum line to the release valve at the parking brake pedal. The problem can be the vacuum line, the release valve or the vacuum actuator for that release valve. Mine was on the steering column.
SOURCE: bleed brakes but no pedal
Good! You bled the master cyl. before installation! The proper order of bleeding the lines, is to start with the wheel the greatest distance from the master cylinder. Then work your way to the next greatest distance, and last, the closest wheel. Make sure all air is removed from the lines before you proceed to the next wheel, and frequently check the master cyl. level, because, as I'm sure you know, if you **** in air at the master, you have to start all over again. I'm assuming you don't have a power bleeder, so with a helper do this with car running (make sure it's on safety stands and not going to fall on you!) Pump pedal 3 times, no need to mash the pedal into the floor, just 3 pumps 1/2 way down, hold 3rd pump at half way down level while bleeder is opened, when flow is about to stop at bleeder, close bleeder and repeat til no evidence of any air. Let me know how it goes and if you need any help.
