It turns out that there were no valves that I could actually switch. The manifold had one line in and one out. Each had a T connection and went back through the floor of the trailer. I did notice that while trying to go in or out the cylinders on the slides that weren't moving would move in and out just a little but not enough to move the slides. So I decided to add some fluid to the pump. a few ounces at a time and try it. on the third addition of fluid the slides started moving. Once I got them all it I made me a little dipstick and it showed the tank to be half full. So far I've seen no sign of leaks. I'm hoping that they just never completely filled it from the factory and it just now became an issue.
The PDF file in
this link is a service and installation manual for these pumps. Lots of good info there.
Thanks guys for all of your input!
