Bleeding front brakes 200 1990

posted by  someone claiming to be John C on  Fri Feb 28 04:04 CST 2003 [RELATED]

I replaced a brake hose on the front driver's side, and have since had a brake failure warning light and poor braking (soft pedal, car pulls to right when braking). My question has to do with my bleeding procedure. I used the old-fashioned two-man pedal pump method. Since I only opened up one wheel's braking system, I assumed that I only needed to bleed from that wheel. Should I have gone through the entire bleeding sequence at all four wheels, or at least done the other front side?
