DON'T EVER reverse flow the ABS Unit or Master Cylinder! You run the high risk of damaging both components. Always loosen the bleeder screws when pushing the caliper back in.

I hope you didn't contaminate the ABS Unit or blow any seals on it or the Master Cylinder.

Also there is a specific pattern (LF-RR-RF-LR) you must bleed the brakes in. You can't just bleed the fronts.
