    This may not be a direct correlation, but here is what I did after someone stole my cat converter and cut the rear brake line causing the master to empty. This was on a nissan frontier with ABS.

    After the replacement of the brake line:

    disconnected the battery (nissan recommends this for vehicles with ABS)
    opened all the bleeders
    added fluid to the master and gravity bled all 4 corners
    When that was clear, went back and individually bled 1 corner at a time.
    reconnected battery.
    pumped up brakes to ensure pressure, gently tested brakes for feel.
    went into a empty gravel parking lot, several hard stops to get the abs to engage

    That seemed to do the trick for me. YMMV on a Hyundai
