Need help with brakes

I changed my front brakes. I took the lines loose at the calipers. I put them back and cant get any pedal. I tried to bleed them over and over. I still have got no pedal at all. Please help.

Did you bleed the rear brakes as well. Not always necesary when you've been working on the front, but you should do the rear as well

There is a great search function. It's in the upper right, "search forum". If you search for: brake bleeding, you will find quite a few threads on the subject.

Why did you remove calipers to change the brakes? 2 man method, 1 pumps other loosens screw. Over and over and over. If you want the master out your sol though.

If, during the time you were bleeding them "over and over" you let the master cylinder go dry, you now have air throughout the system. Bleed everything according to the instructions in the link above.
