ABS Brake Bleeding

ABS Brake Bleeding
Ok, so I've had mushy brakes ever since I've put my truck on the road (84k miles and 6-ish years ago).
Looks like one needs to tickle the ABS module ro do it correctly. So, as the Masters of Smart at Solihull made it necessary for some electronical madness to be utilized to do it properly, what is the sequence of operation that the iland (?) makes the Walboro unit do? Thinking I might be able to do it manually.

Any other input? I haven't actually done it myself yet but it's on the short list.

Standard 'ol brake bleeding I've done countless times (I'm almost really old). I read a post from March '20 where ihscouts was saying something about it. The ABS solenoids and such, that is.
Last weekend I swapped the fronts over to some vented Defender hardware with new braided lines and replaced the pads all around. Even after a bloodletting, there was no improvement in the mush factor. Don't know what has happened but a day or so ago the pedal firmed up bigly and the brakes started acting better. I'm not going to complain about it.

Thanks for the reply,
I combed through the forum and found a thread where our good friend ihscouts mentioning the ABS modulator needs to be cycled.

D1 Brake Bleeding needs to cycle the ABS modulator
I have not cycled the ABS modulator and its fuse has been removed 5yrs ago. For the sake of a firmer brake pedal I will reconnect the ABS fuse to cycle the modulator; follow by using the old school 2 person bleeding.
