Angry 90 Dakota, no brake pressure after...

I just did a front brake job and now, there is no brake pressure at all. Pedal goes all the way to the floor and the Anti-lock light came on. I have check for fluid leaks and found none. I don't want to have to tow it to a shop if it's something simple.

You may need to bleed the brakes.

There is fluid to the top of the reservoir. I checked the brake piston, it did expand back out. No leaks that I can find.

u may have ruined the mater cyl by pushing all the way to the floor, the cyl builds up crud ,because for yrs it only went so far down,then u go and push past that ridge and it ruin ins the rubbers, i would get a new master cyl, just to be safe, tom
