My ST205 ABS actuator goes wizzzz when the ignition is turned on. When bled with ignition off (after brake rebuild) I had a spongy pedal. This firmed up when bled with ignition on (wizzzzz...)

I read this this arvo and was like oh yeah maybe but then it got me thinking about my dads van and the brakes are hugely spongey. They have been bled alot but they were still spongey so I tried it today with the ignition on and the brakes are like new.
