Default Master Cylinder

If the master cylinder was slowly going would it make the pedal slowly keep going to the floor? It has new calipers and pads , all 4 are disc. No signs of leaking except it looks a little wet under the mc. Could be wet from bleeding though. The abs light is on and Ive already cleaned my wheel sensors, could the light be on due to a leak in the mc that I cant see?

Are you slowly losing fluid?

Unless you are losing fluid its probably not a leak.

You may still have air in the system from replacing the calipers.

Yeah, sometimes bleeding can be a major headache. Other times it can be really easy and super smooth.

Took me and my old roommate 30 or 45 min to bleed the brakes on his '71 Chevelle. Took maybe 15 on my friend's 2000 something Nissan Sentra.
