Thank you for clarifying, I wasn't sure what exactly to do. I assume I open a line to the axle locked? Thanks again

Appreciate the help, I'm not a mechanic so I have to keep asking questions. Cracking the line where? The nipple at caliper? The fitting at the master? Under pressure from master cylinder? I just need a little more information.
