Why is no brake fluid coming out of one wheel?

What to do when your brake fluid comes out?
In this case, the mechanic’s first action is to bleed the brake oil to eliminate any air bubbles. This may delay the brake fluid delivery to the brake caliper. This eventually causes lag in the braking process and lowers the brake pedal level. During this process, you may be surprised that no brake fluid coming out when bleeding.
What causes brake fluid to leak from the caliper?
Flex hoses deliver brake fluid from reservoir and brake master/cylinder to the brake caliper. In case the hoses happen to have any cut, or it’s torn out, there will be no pressure in the brakes; thus, brake bleeding will fail. It also causes the brake fluid to leak.

As a general rule of thumb, most cars with anti-lock braking system flush their brake circuits in the same way, provided that no air is in the ABS modulator assembly. If the components you replaced were under the modulator, you could employ the brake fluid’s standard flushing procedures.
