Re: air bags on left side flat can't drive

John,
If you are not able to regain control of the 6-pack valves by using the touch panel, and still want to get the coach moved to MOT (or where ever) then I can only think of two solutions.
1. Hire a towing company that can put the whole coach up on a roll-back truck or low-boy trailer and move it.
OR
2. You might be able to manually pressurize the air bags on the "low" side of the coach. This would require removing the air lines (that go to the air bags on the low side) from both of the 6-pack manifolds. There are 2 lines on the front manifold that you would remove, and 2 lines on the rear manifold.
Using the proper fittings, you could tie the 2 front air bag lines together with a "T" connector. Put a short nipple and a valve in the 3rd hole of the "T" connector. Stick a male quick connect air line fitting in the valve. Then use your tire filler hose to air up the front bags to the correct ride height, and close the valve.
Then do the same thing in the rear. Assuming the air bags are not leaking, they will hold air pressure (and the correct ride height) indefinitely. This will get the coach level at ride height, and allow you to drive it to a repair shop.
If it was me, I'd avoid towing if at all possible. But it's your choice, so do what seems best to you.
Let us know what happens, so we know the end to the story.
