travel light flashing

I checked posts back to five yrs ago and did not find an apparent match for this. While taking my coach back to storage last weekend, the travel light on the leveling system started flashing. I made it the five miles to the storage unit and parked it. This morning I went by and the coach had layed over to the starboard side quite a bit. I fired up the engine and built air. Once air was built up I pushed the level button twice, and got no other lights at all from the system. Upon shutting down and exiting the coach i heard an air leak. I found it under the starboard front driver airbag. I messed with the ride height lever enough to make it stop leaking.

Where do I head from here? Ideas?
Thanks,

When I had a hissing air leak in my front it turned out to be one of my airbags- let out enough air so I could hear it.  If your airbags are original I would sure look for the leak there.

Best of luck.

Thanks to all! I got on the link and looked up troubleshooting for my HWH-- turns out that the connector on back of the board needed a little TLC. Some contact cleaner and a little work with a q tip and it looks like it did the trick. Apparently the "leak" was the back axle bleeding itself off in answer to what was dubious info coming over the connector.
Hopefully this is the cure.
