Default Factory UL Air Supspension CAR WON'T RAISE, or pump air....

Ok, I have a question and been a member for many many years, but its been awhile since I've come back on here. Right now i'm having an issue with my factory air suspension.

My car is really low and won't raise, basically feels like it has no air in the front back. I have the Data Controller, but for some reason that is no longer making my car go up. I tried to put it on setting 4 and on the Data controller screen its telling me that the car is trying to raise with the arrows pointing up- but its not actually doing anything and the compressor isn't coming on. I'm not sure if Data Controllers go bad? or if they can go bad? Also I have a feeling it could be a wire connection issue to the Data Controller?

I tried to manually power up the factory air compressor, when i did that....the car wouldn't raise, so i'm not sure if the ECU needs to be told to open the line so that air can go through. (hope this is making sense) Is there a way that this can be done manually?

Any advise would def. help......I just actually replaced the two front air suspension with used ones and without any air in it...it rides really bumpy. I just wanna figure out a way to raise the car back up, otherwise i'll be forced to go to factory springs/struts

Ive been doing some research and people are talking about a ride height sensor? Where is that located? How much would it cost to get the part for something like that? And could that be the issue possibly?
