No luck in being able to find somebody to help me with testing the solenoids.  Therefore, I'm inclined to replace them to see what happens. If that doesn't work, I going to engage with Foretravel or HWH to inquire about the possibility of having somebody from fly out to Los Angeles. Will cost me a small fortune, but it's better than having a coach that I can't drive.

If I'm able to successfully remove the solenoids, is there a way to test them?

Yup, just run some 14ish gauge wire from your car battery and apply to each terminal in the plug. The plunger should retract when you do and you should hear and audible click. Similarly, when you remove 12v, the spring on the plunger should push it back into place.

Thanks, Elliott.

I'll remove them and do the test when I get back to Los Angeles in a couple of weeks...My flight schedule has been CRAZY over the past year.

Brian,
Where is the coach in Los Angeles? If I'm available when you're back in town, maybe I could help you troubleshoot. I haven't had this specific problem, but I have rebuilt my six packs and have a spare ride height valve. I'm down in Orange County.
