So I added a little more fluid to the reservoir, but in in L and bled maybe 100ml off the control pump accumulator then 100-120ml off each corner. Started it up, then pump was making a super high pitched whining noise and wouldn’t move the car at all. Shut it off, checked the fluid level in the res and it hadn’t gone down at all, odd. Bled another 100ish ml off each corner, opened the valve on the accumulator too but nothing came out Most definitely got some air bubbles that second time coming out in the also very clean fluid. Started the car up, pump wouldn’t kick on at all and the trouble code would pop up on the display almost immediately, whereas before the code would come on after the startup sequence probably 30+ seconds after startup. I’m guessing I’ll have to get one of those scanny tools that lets you manually cycle the pump on now that I’ve seen mentioned, but what should my next move be with that? Isn’t it weird that the fluid level in the reservoir remained high after draining like 800-900ml of fluid, yeah? Especially with the vehicle remaining in L the whole time...
Thinking this over more... Since you've pulled so much fluid out of the suspension system already... If you were able to get the vehicle on jack stands to fully droop all 4 tires, that should in some way make very low or negative pressure on the system, that may help the AHC pump prime again?
