cant get air out of my ABS system 3 shops and no luck.

So i tool my BBK off to get them powdercoated, i left the lines hanging from the car, come to find out all of the fluid gravity drained out and ran the resivour dry. I put new fluid and bled the brakes about 6 full time till no air what so ever came out, the problem is the brake pedal goes to the floor, im being told that my ABS systom has a bypass and theres air locked in there. Does anyone know how to get that air out?

Cliffs. brake system wasfully drained, ABS system got air, now need to get the air out via any means.

Have you gone to Nissan/Infiniti yet? I believe the Consult unit needs to talk to ABS solenoids to tell them to manually open which then will remove the air from the system. Most non-Nissan shops don't have this equipment and is why it's best to leave brake fluid replacement to the dealership.
