Abstract: A device and related methods for remotely engaging a brake pedal of a vehicle, and/or engaging the steering wheel of the vehicle to arrest movement thereof, in order to perform a repair or maintenance process on the vehicle. The device allows a single user to remotely control an adjustable support which extends to fit between the steering wheel and brake pedal of the vehicle, with an actuation system operable to depress and release the brake pedal while the user is positioned at a position outside the vehicle to affect maintenance or repair. The device can be used for remotely depressing a brake pedal of a vehicle in order to bleed the hydraulic brake system, check the brake light function, flushing the brake fluid, air brake diagnoses to check for air leaks and function, repair a component of the brake system (e.g., pads, rotors, cylinders, etc.) or suspension system, change or rotate a tire, adjust the alignment, or any other process which involves removing a wheel, or putting the vehicle up on jacks.

Abstract: A device and related methods for bleeding the brake system of a vehicle without the need for two people to participate in the operation. The device allows a single user to remotely control an adjustable support which extends to fit between the steering wheel and brake pedal of the vehicle, with an actuation system operable to depress and release the brake pedal while the user is positioned at a brake line valve of the vehicle. The device can be used for remotely depressing a brake pedal of a vehicle in order to bleed the hydraulic brake system, check the brake light function, flushing the brake fluid, or air brake diagnoses to check for air leaks and function.
