Own a 2006 Holiday Rambler Ambassador with Cummins 330hp and Allison. Left home in Mi. on 26 Dec 2008 with snow on the roads. Arrived in Pensacola, Fl for 6 weeks then on to Sebring,Fl. for 3 months. When returning home I discovered the Pac Brake would not come on. After arriving home and some troubleshooting I found the Pac Brake shaft to be frozen solid in the open position. Extended service contract paid for a new upgraded PRXB and installation. Cause was from corrosion and not getting proper lubrication. After the new Pac Brake was installed, I called the manufacturer if it would be to rotate the brake so the shaft would be vertical and allow the lubricant to run down the shaft. I also installed a double throw toggle switch in the engine compartment so I can manually actuate the Pac Brake while lubricating it. So far this year I have checked it and it is still working OK.KDK
