Help with parking brake interlock issue

My '05 Pace Arrow (WH22) has a parking break issue. With the engine running and the parking break engaged, not plugged into shore power, I get no indicator on the dash that the parking break is engaged. This results in no way to get the jacks down and no way to move the slides since there must be some kind of interlock that is failing to engage when the parking break is engaged. Need some help with a solution. Is there a relay somewhere that senses when the parking break is engaged? Is it fused? If so, where is the fuse box located?

I've checked under the hood, in the fuse compartment, and I don't see any fuse specific to the parking break. I will check under the dash, by the parking break mechanism, for some sort of mechanical switch that my not be working. Other than this, has anyone experienced this and be willing to share their solution?

Thanks.

I experienced the same thing on an '04 Geo/twn. The emerg. brake switch was bad and not grounding the circuit board to complete the circuit. Replaced the switch and it operated as it should. Just my thoughts.
Safe Travels.

Thanks, Joe. Was hoping it was not the switch. Got lucky. The wire from the switch somehow got knocked off. Replaced the wire on the switch tab and all is working as expected now.

Thanks.

My Geo/twn was on a W20 chassis(forgot to mention that). Glad you solved your problem.
