The lever on an auto switch regulator has nothing to do with with tank is in service....it is just a means of 'indicating' which tank is in service and allows the red/green indicator to function.
You could never change lever position and still both tanks will be drawn from.
When one tank is emptied the regulator switches over to the other tank.
IF both tanks have propane, both tanks valved in and you have no propane flow then problem could be with regulator, could be with the pigtail lines from tank to regulator (they have a small ball that stops flow when excessive flow happens---can get stuck sometimes).
As suggested..try valving tanks out then slowly open valve fully.
If you do not get flow (check by lighting stove top burners) then have it checked at a bulk propane shop........or throw parts at it (regulator, pigtails)
