I don't know exactly how the system is set up, but should be: pump to distribution block to individual lines for each corner. You might be able to pull the right rear line where it attaches at the valve block and blow some air through it with an air compressor to see if the line in blocked. Unless there's something between the right rear corner and the distribution block, my guess would be that block.

When your troubleshooting the airbag system what I would do is have it expand all the airbags the full then that way you can troubleshoot from there because if they all Arab did it's either the block works one of the sensors that's how I started out I'm having the same problem with my right front airbag and I did something a little different arrays the whole system so it's like it set up for off-road Ing and then I disconnected one of the sensors by the front right wheel and I let it set overnight to make sure it stayed up and it stayed up so I'm betting it's the right height sensor that went out on mine because as it stands now I have drove over 1000 miles an airbag is still up in the sensor still unplugged so now I got to find a place to buy a sensor that he got cost me an arm and a leg

I would take a look at the purge valve located on the compressor, if its tall, sounds like its not releasing air, may be its sticking or has an electrical problem on the wire. I think there's some videos on you tube on how to clean it..
