So I got a 2000 dodge neon and seemed the left rear brake shoes broke off?! So I changed em, then noticed the wheel cylinder was not moving when I pushed the brake. The brake pedal still went to the floor. Changed the wheel cylinder and Tried a few things then tried to bleed the brakes, nothing came out of the back, just a drip. Looked under the hood to find that it is leaking out of the bottomhose on the master cylinder. Everytime I push the brake pedal down it squirts out there. My husband thinks it's the little connector that is attached to the master cylinder at that point. I think it could be a clogged brake hose? IDK at all. So he wants to order the part he thinks is broken the connector. I really need this fixed as this is my only families car right now any advice would be great.
Mahalo.

i doubt that your problem is a clogged brake line.
the biggest problem is the leak. it shouldn't leak, no matter what, so you've got to fix that first. and don't drive it till the leak is fixed. i don't know anything about neons, but even if the front brakes are working now, they might go out if you run out of brake fluid.

and of course, husbands are always right
