I have an odd problem, the driver's side dropped when I hooked to shop air at 90 psi.
I upped the air to 110 and the coach leveled.
I can't find the front 6 pack solenoid. Any ideas?
I repaired a bad fitting on the rear 6 pack and think there may be a similar problem on the front one.

Did you find the answer?
On my coach 701, there is one 6-pack underneeth the driver seat. You have to look from the very bottom up to see it.
There is another 6 pack on the wall of the engine bay.
When the VALID leveling controller is set to "Travel" mode, 2 solenoid of each of the 6 pack feels pretty hot.
Let me know if you find the same as above described.

You may find that 90 psi is NOT enough to raise the rear. That is certainly true on the HWH slide coaches. A number of people have chased solenoid, HCV, and other issues only to discover this.
