Default calibrate leveling system

I have a 2000 S430 that recently had some work done (airmatic pump replaced, etc.) at a non MBZ Shop. I will never make that mistake again. Now the right side is always 1" below the left side. I tested it for leaks and there aren't any. I disconnected the airmatic pump and measured the height of each wheel, and then let it sit for 3 days. None of the measurements changed over a 3 day period of time so I am confident that there are no leaks.

My question is simply this. How can I recalibrate the leveling system.I reset the airmatic pump (by turning the steering wheel all the way to the right, then all of the way to the left, and then to the center, and waiting for 15 seconds), and the pump works fine. It raises and lowers as it should but the right side is always 1" below the left.

Any ideas. Does it take a complete reset of the ECU?

Any help would be very much appreciated.
