help, airmatic problem

hi, i got a gl63 amg and recenty found vehicle right front air spring leaks. it raised up after car turned on and lowed after turned off. but today right before i was about to drive it to the hoist to replace the new strut, it would not raise up at all. i then replace the air spring with the strut but problem was i could not be able to fill the air to raise the right front up at all. i then used the star to active the air supply to right front but still no good. compressor sound working fine and other three springs up and down normally. i disconnect the air hose from top of the strut to see if any air came from it but still nothing at all even the compressor sound working. it also lose the calibration of level but i could not perform the calibration since right front not working at all. could it be the valve block or the compressor fault? any help is much appreciated. thanks

HI, if the air pump isn't working at all when car has started its the pump ,check fuses first. If pump is working it's the valve box needs replacing, a normal replacement of valve box.
