Default UL Height-option not working?!

I toggled my height switch and noticed no car height difference at all! Engine was runnning, car in park position. No malfunction alarm at the display console, and the Hi indicator turned on when I depressed the button. Please help!

my experience from my last 01 UL, you can't really see the difference, the adjustment is so little.
My LX470 could make a big difference!

Remember it is not instantaneous, takes a couple of minutes for it to level out. Should rise up about 1"+ front and rear.

I clearly notice the difference on mine, but it takes time.

It takes a few minutes, the compressor is really really slow. You will see a slight differance in the height, maybe 15-20mm.

Turn it up and then start the car.
Come out fast and see the gap between tire and a fender. You should see it increasing .
