Default TROUBLE RESETTING THE SLABS ECU

I've been working on my 02 Disco II SLS. Initially, it had a line leaking on the LR Air Spring line, caused by an over-zealous mechanic stripping the ABS plastic (Mr. MuscleHead!). After this was repaired, I left a line loose on the valve assy and the system was shut down by the ECU. This is an assumption, but follows well as, after giving up on getting it to run (ckng all fuses and relays), I decided to trot down to Auto Zone to get the O rings for the 3 fittings (compressor out, out to left and out to right spring) on my unit, as long as I had it apart. The center (compressor) fitting was in hand to check fit.
Like magic, the assembly started running on the way out of the driveway. I pulled the relay for the compressor to prevent damage to the system for the 2 block trip and went on. When I got back, I finished replacing the o rings, plugged in the relay and nothing happened.
Not knowing what (specifically) I had done that caused the reset, I began pulling fuses, anticipating this had reset the ECU. No matter what I did, or in what combination (all fuses pulled, key turned on and off, pulling the neg bat cable, the SLABS ECU has not reset again.
I've replaced and rebuilt all I can. The compressor runs when I jump out the relay, but the ECU isn't opening the valves to the springs.
How can I reset this thing???
Thanks for your help!

Have you tried disconnecting the battery and letting it sit for 30minutes or so?

Trying that now. Will report in 35 minutes.

There are more than 50+ pounds of uranium powering the 50+ satellites currently in orbit.
All orbits decay.
Less than one pound, scattered into the upper atmosphere would kill all living things on this Earth.

Okay. To be sure the capacitors had discharged, I turned the key into start before hooking the cables back.
Same result. My butt's still draggin'!

And I use my 52" flat screen only for DVD's. Currently playing is the "Chronicles of Riddick" Trilogy-only $14.88 at Wally World!
