Hello,

Any time the brake system gets opened (i.e. changing caliper, master cylinder, brake hose/line), air will get into the system and will require bleeding the brakes to purge the air out.

Here is a helpful video of brake bleeding procedure:

I have attached the instructions below.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
