2010 e550, airmatic recalibration
So I am new to posting so please advise what information I am missing. I am looking for help with my airmatic suspension. I recently replaced the lower control arms on my E550 4matic ( I will also be doing the upper but ran into an issue with the airmatic) , it ran fine before but the front end was becoming tired. All went smooth thanks to some nice easy engineering, however the passenger side is now sitting lower, by almost 1.5 inches.
The problem I am having is I have been unable to do the recalibrate tricks that people have talked about. I disconnected both batteries and that did not work. I tried hitting the raise button and it raises and stays there overnight, and as I said everything was good with the airmatic before the control arms.
Anyone have any other tips I could use to have it re-set or re-calibrate. I do not have a scanner with that kind of functionality but may have to get one, as I live 2hrs from the nearest MB dealer.
Thanks

Inspect rusted or broken height sensor arms.
I don't know Airmatic "calibration procedure"...
