Low fluid warning

As I pulled into driveway, my low fluid waring sounded and the left wheel locked and skidded a little. Checked the fluid, it was not low. For about a year now, had occasional issues of front wheels heating and brakes draging. Just took off the front lines to replace but they look fine, no restrictions. Have a 93 Coachmen Santara with air assist brakes?

the 93 seems about the right age for the soft lines to brake down internally. Some times it acts like a small one way valve. I would suggest replacing the rubber brake line. also possible the caliper is hanging up.. but start with the brake lines. should be cost effective.
I have seen with compressed air, they seem to pass ok, but won't let the caliper open back up and retains pressure on the pads... bad part is it will over heat and warp the rotors if not taken care of.
Good luck.
