Power Gear Hydraulic Leveling Manual mode won't work

2012 Winnie motorhome Ford chassis with Power Gear Hydraulic Leveling System.
Replaced the touch pad and the controller. Manual mode will not work. Might be parking brake ground but can't find the parking brake electric connections.
Any idea where the connection is? under the driver's foot carpet?
Can't see it under the dash where the lever is.
It does work in automatic mode but needs to be calibrated and need to do that manually.
Hints and ideas welcome.

    Update - Leveler Problem
    We fixed our Leveler Problem. Turns out we have a level switch next to the step. The screw head to hold the whole panel was caught on the level switch in the auto position. Fixed the screw - fixed the problem. Simple but drove me nuts!

    In Auto mode it will work but we are very unlevel. We have to manually recalibrate it and that is our problem.
    Parking Brake interface is working.

    If it works in Auto mode, the parking Brake system is working. What happens when you do Auto level? You do not have to use manual mode to set the level sensor. You can set the level sensor by setting it without the jacks down. Doug
