Default Brake Bleeding Question

-I had a line break which caused all of the fluid to be drained from the brake fluid reservoir. After replacing the brake line and bleeding from the caliper...al seems OK. My question is should I take it to the dealer to have the ABS system bled?? I know on My Ford F-150 if the reservoir goes dry you have to take it to a dealer to bleed the ABS system (i.e. it has to be hooked up to a computer to tell it to open a bleeder valve).

Thanx in advance.

No need, just make sure to have the car running when you're bleeding everything.
