Default Another Strange Suspention Problem 2005

Hi guys, my 2nd GX has developed a new issue. The storry goes as:
While sittin on the parking lot, i decided to cycle the hight of the car. I regreat it now, but back then it seemed like a great idea . So i pressed up, and the hight indicator light started flashing but never stopped after a bunch of time, ( i didnt sense any movement or hear the aur pump) then i preseed down to return the car to "N" position, it flashed for a long time, then i pressed down again ( i didnt feel any movement again) So by this time im beginning to worry, and not sure how, but after cycling up/down button somehow i got a steady light on "N" position. What i expereinced for the next 80 mile drive sucked! The truck was so bouncy, and taking any uneven road so hard, my passenger and i thought we gonna have a whiplash by the time we will get home. When we arrived the back of he truck looked sitting lower than the front. What can be the problem? I read about hight controll sensors, but my understanding the hight indicator light would flash if sensor were to give. Mine shows solid and i hear no air pump :/
Please help!

this happened to me, I crawled under truck, loosened both sensors and cycled the hell out of them up and down, violently. I then re tightened at max height, and seems to be working for now.

So i lifter the car, and discovered that the adjustinle link that goes the hight sensor was broken. Had new part ordered $98. Hopefully it will solve the issue. Still not sure how the indicator light shows the "N" position while the suspention bottomed out
