next project..Sleep mode not waking up and travel solenoids

Took the coach to Premier RV in Jct. City, OR to address the in-operative HWH sleep mode...
Our coach as far as I can tell has never had the sleep mode working properly..ie: all the lights are on..... but no one is home.
just as  a check, have drained all the air out of the wet/front  rear air tanks  with just the 12v Thomas pump supplying air to the HWH tank.
I do have an air leak somewhere (not bad) that when the coach is in sleep mode will let the coach go somewhat out of level but the HWH in sleep mode does not check it's self and re-level ...
When I turn the ignition key on , the touch pad shows that it is still in sleep mode and after a 5 minute wait will wake up and level the coach (but only with the key on..)

The other issue that just showed up is that when traveling in "travel" mode, the "level system " dash light came on and the coach started to really pull to the left..
I saw that the travel light on the touch pad was out so hit the travel button and a few seconds later the dash light went out and the travel light on the touch pad was lit..
This sequence happened every mile or two for about 20/25 miles , then the travel light stayed lit for the rest of the trip to Premier RV in Jct. City , OR.

So far Premier has determined that the control board is suspect,  so are sending it off to HWH for a rebuild, and they will address the the travel mode solenoids when the control board returns from HWH..

I had trouble with my "level system" light coming on while traveling down the road. Finally figured out that after running in the slide I wasn't holding down the retract button long enough for the system to do it's "thing".  Someone wrote that you hold the button down until the light changes from red to yellow,  count to 5 and then release.  Turn slide key off. Ever since doing that I've had no problem.  My problem now is that it wakes up and thinks it's unlevel and re-levels and the port side is always high. Drives me crazy.

Hmmm..
I wonder if your level sensor is getting lazy?
Our mercury level sensor wasn't real accurate (or so "Wayne" who was working @ Old Town said) replaced it with the "new style" and moved it from from under the bottom drawer under the Gagg-a-bunch cooktop to the the roof of the cargo bay.
Even after that, it still did not wake up while in sleep mode.
