1st make sure that you BLOCK the Coach prior to getting under it!!!
2nd wait for some other replies to make sure that I haven't missed something I am new to this as well.

On my '82 there is a plate near the entrance door that has the coaches identifications. This plate states a dimension that the front of the coach should be from the ground and a dimension that the rear of the coach should be from the ground.
After reading that your coach had an engine fire, it would make the Air Ride Suspect. When the Ignition Switch is turned on the Air Ride is Actuated. If you were to turn on the Ignition Switch with no Air Pressure the Coach would lower itself. Now when you start the Coach it should go to the Ride Height. The Leveling System bypasses the Ride Height while the Coach is Stationary.
Remember that we have Air Brakes and Air Suspension, this makes me want to be extremely cautious that all is in working order before I head on down the road.
