Automatic Changeover Regulator not changing over

My auto-changeover regulator will not switch sources once the first tank goes empty. The curbside tank will feed until empty, but the driver's side will not flow. I am forced to either lug the empty tank to the LP station or swap the full, driver's side tank over to the bay for the curbside.

OK check out my thinking on this: I can rule out the high-flow safety tank valve (on both tanks) as the culprit because either tank works fine in the curbside bay. True or false? If true, then would that would leave the regulator the most likely suspect?

Thanks for any help given.

My first guess is the valve thinks there is a leak in the line. There has to be some back pressure to the valve for it to stay open.
