No rear brakes?

Just was out for a ride and realize i had no rear brakes at all. I checked the fluid and it was full. ran out of time to check on anything else. Any ideas where to look at?

ok heres what your going to do take the cap off the res, there will be a rubber cap in the top of it take a razor and make a "very" small cut in the middle of that 1/4 inch. then your going to bleed the system starting at the line coming out of the reservoir pump pedle -bleed do this about 5 times "keep adding fluid"do not let it go dry!!!..next "if you still dont have breaks bleed the caliper 5 times "still adding break fluid" put cap back on and see where your at

Cut the slit in the black diaphram as stated and replace the stock pads w a quality pad like DP Brakes Sintered pads. the stock pads wear off very fast.
