then you boiled your brake fluid. Your current fluid has absorbed water and boiled if your pedal actually went to the floor. If you just lost brakes and your pedal felt the same, then you experienced brake fade due to high temps. Change your fluid and bleed the brakes until new fresh fluid comes out. This will fix your problem. A good cheap brake fluid is the Ford Heavy Duty Dot 3 synthetic. Do not use any silicone brake fluid. I use Wagner Severe Duty Dot 5.1 synthetic fluid. I even flushed my clutch system with it.
