air bag suspension prblem

My air bags seem to be inflated but not equally. The coach leans to the right a little (about 5 to 10%). From the little that I have read on air bag suspensions I understand that the compressor will add more air when cornering or braking to the appropriate bags. When I make a left hand corner the coach feels like it wants to flip right in its right side. A right hand corner however, all is fine. Is there a solenoid or valve that is not functioning properly? How do I check air bag pressure and or adjust ride height? Is there any drawings of this system that anyone has or a web site I can find them on?
2006 National Tradeswind, 40', Freightliner chassis, 400 Cummins, 6spd Allusion.
Thanks in advance for any and all help!
Doug

Doug, what system do you have? Is it HWH computerized leveling? You probably need to adjust the ride height control, some have one on each wheel. Or it could be an air solenoid. There are most likely two air manifolds in your system one at the front of the mh and one in the rear they will have six solenoids each, two for the raise function, two for the dump function, and two for travel mode if there is a leak in one of the solenoids it will be easy to spot with a spray bottle and soapy water. Try spraying the whole solenoid they tend to leak around the valve body where they screw into the manifold. Or sometime the coil won't energize. If you have HWH you should be able to go to their website for diaghrams. Hope this helps.
