1989 Crown Royale - Air bag dump ??

So, been putting more time into the coach lately and fixed some more things. The coach has RVA 3-point levelers, the air bags do have dump valves/solenoids and they are wired up...to...something.

My question is, how the heck do I dump the bags? I have no switch that I can find and the RVA auto leveler doesn't seem to be activating the dump valves, it just goes right into dropping the jacks.

My concerns are...

- Harder to actually get level due to how much the jacks have to travel and may not have enough travel.

- Possible to damage the air bags by leveling with them full?

The Monaco owner's manual says to dump the bags and that the auto-leveling system will do this for me, the RVA manual makes no mention of dumping the bags as part of its process. Oof.

Any ideas?

With the motor off and the key in the ON position, just pump the brakes and watch the air pressure drop on the guages. (Make sure parking brake is set.)

That won't work, that just depletes the tanks and brakes, the bags will still hold air.
