rails locals var not being recognized

Unusual, I have a render partial with :locals set up but the partial is not recognizing the var being set.

<%= render '/shared/dynamic_attributes', :locals => {:obj => @equipment } %>

Error:

undefined local variable or method `obj' for #<ActionView::Base: 0x26bad44>

Either do

<%= render :partial => '/shared/dynamic_attributes', :locals => {:obj => @equipment } %>

OR

<%= render '/shared/dynamic_attributes', :obj => @equipment %>

Thanks. I am not sure why but when I was doing CTRL+R to reload it was having issues. When I went back to the index and went to my edit page it works just fine. doh...
