exhaust brake not working

worked 2 campouts ago.
1 campout ago was down south - no mountains - didn't miss it.
this weekend, back in the mountains - needed it.

turn on switch, take foot off gas - nothing.
no slowing down, no light on dash.

is there a fuse somewhere ?

We have an '06 Dutch Star and when our E-brake failed we fixed it by replacing a 5 amp fuse found in the basement compartment in front of the passenger side rear wheel. We found out where it was located by calling Spartan.

fuse good. wires not.

checked the fuse - good.

turns out one of the wires came off of the back of the switch in the dash.

all better now.
