1997 Other GMC Models Auto park brake

Brakes problem
1997 Other GMC Models

I have a 1997 Winnabago motorhome and while driving it stopped as if I had put on the brake but my foot was on the gas pedal. The auto park idiot light came on and the brakes are locked up. I tried to drive it home but the back brakes started smelling and smoking. Do you know what caused this and how to correct this problem? Thanks, Paul

there may be an electric soleonoid that appplied the brake. check to see if you have a switch someplace remotely that may hae turned on.
