Check the vacuum line to the modulator, which runs down the right side of
the engine.

Make sure your parking brake is not stuck, though I'm not sure the parking
brake, even when working, is effective enough to make it that difficult to
move.

Do you have any visible leaks? That includes leaks from the chain case, the
pan, and the modulator.

Since it was sudden, and the fault appeared while the coach was stopped,
I'm guessing a vacuum hose or bad modulator.
