  About a month ago I was pulling my 70' Square in my garage (fortunately I
  was going slow....) and the same thing happened.  I stopped before I hit
  the back of the garage. I DID have a little bit of stopping power due to the
dual 
  circuit Master Cylinder, but it was unnerving to say the least.  At least I
know
  that the Brake Warning Light works! Did one of the tabs puncture the line
  or was the line corroded at the tab? 

  Besides, checking this would prevent brake fluid from coming inside the
  car which creates a royal mess!
