You need special software in a OBD2 diagnostic unit to control the hydraulic valves/pumps so a dealer is your primary option to bleed the brakes. If a third party opens the bleed valve, you are likely to have to go to a dealer to get your brakes to work right.

My dealer would have charged me $90, but I had a brake inspection done for $30. When the d(st)ealer tried to burn me for an unnecessary $500 full front brake job, he bled the right front brake to repair the "Chirp". $30 total cost.
