Auto Park Brake Issue

Good evening, my first post hope all is well.
I own a 2000 Safari Trek 2830 with P32 custom chassis. Recently the rats ate into one of my JII leveling jack hoses. Fluid is now low, alarm bong is going off. Auto Park Brake is on and will not release. Are the two systems connected some how? I switched out the relay and both green and gray sensor switches. Brake still does not release. Any suggestions before calling an expensive Mobil mechanic.
Tomorrow I will fill the leveler pump reservoir but I doubt it will work. I did do a temporary simple repair to the hose.
Respectfully,
Gene

    The best source for help with your Trek is Trek Tracks at http://www.trektraxs.com/ They are very knowledgeable and helpful. Membership is in the group is free to everyone that owns, wants to own or has owned a Trek. It's one of the most valuable resources you're find for Trek owners.

    I don't have the auto-parking brake on my motorhome but I've never heard of any connection between the brake and the leveler system.

    Also on the other forum is a special section for the Workhorse chassis that may contain some information that you can use.

    Sorry I can’t help you more. Good luck with your problem.
