Default 97 Rover Braking problem

I drive a 97 Range Rover with 175,000 miles on it. The other day as I was driving down the road i lost pressure in the pedal. At the same time I lost pressure the ABS, Brake, and Traction control lights came on. In an attempt to remedy the situation I replaced the brake pads and bleed the system. As you can tell from my post, the problem has not been fixed. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Default RE: 97 Rover Braking problem

could be a few things... the brake system on that car is not normal... it has no vacuum brake booster, its electric and uses a fluid pump. main things that fail with it are the pump itself, the pressure sensor in the pump, and the accumulator ontop of the pump. unless youre pretty good with electrics, you need to take it somewhere and have them figure out whats up... one more thing, if they say its the pump, ask them whats wrong with it, as the pump comes with new sensor and new accumulator... these get replaced way more often then they need to
