Brake problem
So I replace the brakes on a 2011 Ford Ranger. After replacing the brakes I got an ABS and traction control light come on. I got into the ABS with a scan tool and found out the left front sensor is at fault. Haven't found out actually what is wrong with it yet. But after replacing the brakes and bleeding the back to New calipers I replaced, I have little brake pressure in the pedal. It's not spongy but it goes to the floor. I have no air in the system. But I am wondering if since the ABS is out if that is causing no brake pedal pressure? Anybody have any ideas?

No, not an ABS issue, the pedal to the floor
So where is the fluid leaking out?
The master cylinder piston pushes out brake fluid and it has to go somewhere, even if there is air in the lines it will compress and pedal will get harder to press, i.e. spongy
But if pedal just goes to the floor then system is OPEN somewhere.
Don't press pedal with engine on, just do it for now with engine off, you get a better feel with no Power Assist
