I checked the brake pads, shoes, rotors, and drums, and bled the system, but it still didn’t help. The pedal still goes straight to the floor. My next step will be to replace the calipers and wheel cylinders to see if that helps at all.

Did you try a gravity bleed?

Not yet. I’m not exactly sure how that works.

What I did on my effing blazer today was:
Go out in the middle of an effing thunderstorm because the mother effing horn was blowing nonstop because the mother effing sunroof leaked enough water into the dash and all to short several things out. Had to stand there with a flashlight, gettimg soaked, lightning everywhere, in my pajamas at 3am and try to figure out what to pull from which fuse box to make the GD horn shut up. I may set the thing on fire, if it ever stops raining long enough.
I LOVE MY MOTHER EFFING BLAZER!!!

Unfortunately it would have been an equal or greater hassle, as all my tools are in the back of the parts blazer, which would have entailed traipsing through the mud. 😩
What makes it so bad is that normally, the effing horn doesn't work. 🤔

I'm sorry but that's kind of humorous.

Actually it is. I have to admit if someone else told me this happened to them, part of me would laugh 🤣
