    Siezed bleed nipple prevents conventioanl bleeding , so :-

    Open caliper to expose piston
    Crack open caliper supply line
    Push piston back into bore thus evacuating caliper of air/bad fluid
    Open reservoir
    Allow to gravity bleed
    Close caliper supply line
    Close and bolt up caliper
    Top up fluid as required
    Slowly press brake pedal to reseat piston on pads


    What do you reckon ? (TIA)
