Default ABS and Brake light stays on

Hello, I let the front reservoir on the master cylinder run dry, now the ABS and Brake light stays on. The brakes feel as though they might need bled now too, Thanx for any help!

If it went dry the MC might be bad now, but yes, try bleeding.

Leeches are easily found in most swamps. Some lakes too......

On a more serious note.......

Front reservoir is for the rear brakes. This is a perfect opportunity to flush the entire system, and get all the old nasty fluid out. Should fix your problem too.
