HWH question

Yesterday I was tracking down some air leaks and blocked the front end of my coach.  This morning I started the engine, built up air pressure and tried to raise the bus off the blocks.  The level systems shows to be in "travel" mode but front is still on the blocks and the airbags are deflated.

When trying to raise the coach, nothing happens on the HWH pad, still shows travel mode, but none of the other buttons seem to respond and the air tanks do not drop as they do when inflating the bags.

Anyone have a suggestion?

I'd start by opening the HWH computer and unplugging all the harnesses and re-plug to do a reset.

Raise  coach manually with hwh holding on and raise button, shut off coach and hwh , remove blocks start coach and it will go to travel mode.
If coach is above travel mode height and key on , it will try to  exhaust air from bags to drop coach to travel mode, it cannot because it is on the blocks.

Thanks for suggestions. 

As it turns out I am sometimes not the brightest bulb.  The salesman switch was turned off, which disabled the HWH system.  Switch turned on everything works as it was designed.
