The cap for the brake reservoir need to be removed for the piston to move ease.
Be sure to have rags or towel around the reservoir,

Thanks! some of the fluid almost came out, but once I put the pads back in the fluid went back down when I pushed the brake pedal a few times. Brakes work fine thankfully
