slight problem with linelock

Everything works fine...but when I am holding down the button and start to press the gas, the brakes wont hold...if im off the gas, the car will hold steady fine...

is this a simple "need to bleed the brakes more" solution?

thanks

Could be that or you may need to pump the brakes more before activating the line lock.

Guess I shoulda read the directions more. Didn't realize you had to pump the brakes.

thanks

Yeah I had that same problem in my 87 GN with the line lock thank god I have not had it yet in my ws6 since the line lock was installed. But anyway yes I did have to pump my brake pedal 2 or 3 times with the line lock of so the brakes will build up pressure and hold better when the line lock is engaged. Hope you learn from my experience. The only time I had to bleed the brakes was because after I used it there would be little or no pressure left in the brakes and the pedal would go to the floor. Bleeding them helped.
