Check the master cylinder and make sure it is working correctly and both resevoirs are full.

- If the master cylinder is full in the back, then you have an obstruction in the rear line, if they don't bleed at the bleeder valve. Try and find a connection on that line that you can carefully loosen (use the correct brake wrenches if they are frozen)and see if there is fluid there. If there is, then keep working towards the rear caliper. There may be an obstruction in the caliper itself. Brake lines can be stopped up by the smallest grain of sand.
