The scanner says that the problem code is" STORED", not "CURRENT and STORED". This means that there was a problem, but that there is not currently a problem. If your scanner can delete/erase the code do so, and see what happens. I would expect the truck to operate normally.

There is a leak in the system, check the four air bags. You can DIY it using water & soap, although some air bag leaks are not apparent depending on the way the bag is folded.
Check for leaking air lines, distribution block, compressor and the pressure sensors.
I have the Foxwell NT530 snd I can conduct tests to diagnose where the system holds or leaks pressure.
Can you do the same tests?
Good luck

The scanner appears to be saying that the small air line between the valve block and the air reservoir is broken or the reservoir is leaking. That leak shouldn't be too hard to locate.
