Default pressure bleed them

Any service station should be able to pressure bleed them for less than 50 bucks.

On the few I have done there is a access on the actuator to use a big flat screw driver to pump the brake piston. Insert screw driver (okay pry bar to be technical and correct) Pull pry bar to compress the actuator piston, hold Have some one bleed brakes. repeat as required.
