Sounds like the antilock unit is full of air or it just went bad, did you bleed the antilock unit with the key on? It has a bleeder on the side. I have ran across a few is these that need a scanner to activate the system to allow bleeding.

Did you bleed the master cylinder properly ? Are any of the lines wet from brake fluid ?

GMT360 platform has a ABS module that must be bled using a scanner. Or you'll never get all the air out.
