00 Chevy EHCU HELP

I have a 00 Chevy Silverado and recently replaced the rear brake line due to blown rusty one but i had to remove all brake lines going to the EHCU due to the transfercase and tortion bars in the way to get to them indivdualy.. so i had to bend them out of my way and didn't take note on where they go after i got the new line in. i have 5 lines to connect. 1 front master cyl brake line 1 rear master cyl brake line 1 front drivers brake line 1 front pass. brake line 1 rear brake line
(1)...(2)...(3) 3 across the top
(4)...(5) 2 across the middle
(C)...(C) 2 capped lines i believe are to bleed the echu not sure thou Since i had all lines off do i need to bleed the unit itself or just go thru reg. bled sequence Passenger rear, drivers rear, passenger front, then driver front.

How to replace lines brake proportioning vale plumbing honda civic 1993

No clue what you're asking. Is it a '00 Silverado or a '93 Civic? I would find a prop valve and lines in the junkyard if you can. If the lines are rusty, just use the old ones to match up to new ones. The valve is usually OK unless someone puts motor oil or something not brake fluid in the system. If that's the case all teh calipers and wheel cylinders need replacing too.

you may have air trapped in the ABS EHCU. Did you use this procedure?

Bleeding the EHCU

Bleeding the EHCU requires the use of the TECH-1 scanner or its equivalent and the appropriate cartridge. Additionally, 3 tools, J-39177 or equivalent, are required. Bleeding cannot be performed without this equipment.
The EHCU must be bled after replacement or if air is trapped within the unit. It must be bled after bleeding the master cylinder and before bleeding the individual wheel circuits.
The Internal Bleed Valves on either side of the unit must be opened 1 / 4 - 1 / 2 turn before bleeding begins. These valves open internal passages within the unit. Actual bleeding is performed at the two bleeders on the front of the EHCU module. The bleeders must not be opened when the system is not pressurized. The ignition switch must be OFF or false trouble codes may be set.
  1. Open the internal bleed valve 1 / 4 - 1 / 2 turn each.
  2. Install one tool J-39177 on the left bleed stem of the EHCU. Install one tool on the right bleed stem and install the third tool on the combination valve.
  3. Inspect the fluid level in the master cylinder, filling if needed.
  4. Slowly depress the brake pedal and hold it down.
  5. Open the left bleeder on the front of the unit. Allow fluid to flow until no air is seen or until the brake pedal bottoms.
  6. Close the left bleeder, then slowly release the pedal. Wait 15 seconds.
  7. Repeat Steps 4, 5 and 6, including the 15 second wait, until no air is seen in the fluid.
  8. Tighten the left internal bleed valve to 5 ft. lbs. (7 Nm).
  9. Repeat Steps 3-7 at the right bleeder on the front of the unit.
  10. When bleeding of the right port is complete, tighten the right internal bleed valve to 5 ft. lbs. (7 Nm).
  11. Remove the 3 special tools.
  12. Check the master cylinder fluid level, refilling as necessary.
  13. Bleed the individual brake circuits at each wheel.
  14. Switch the ignition ON . Use the hand scanner to perform 3 function tests on the system.
  15. Carefully test drive the vehicle at moderate speeds; check for proper pedal feel and brake operation. If any problem is noted in feel or function, repeat the entire bleeding procedure.

Power steering and brake line location2002 Chevy Silverado 2500HD

the power steering lines are very short hoses approximately 8 inches long that go from the power steering pump down to the steering box, which is located on the frame, just below the pump. The brake lines run from the master cylinder(where you fill it with fluid on the drivers side firewall) down to the frame, and then follow the frame both directions; both to the front end and the rear end, along the drivers side frame rail, just on the inside of it. The fuel line runs along the same path to the rear.
