Hopefully you have the service manual in paper or downloaded. If so, have you verified when they put the leveler back in the car it was correct and transverse rods are in correctly. At neutral level point, the small levers connected to transverse rods at end of short torsion bars should point down or to just slightly toward center but more or less down. If that is not the case, then can you bring it level manually by removing the control link rod between compensator switch and the left main bar. When that is removed, there should be spring tension apparent on the switch when moving manually. Push it in one direction or the other to move the levers pointing down. Unless against a limit switch, after the delay leveler should start to move. If car can be leveled, then level it & Move the bracket clamped to the left main bar or the turnbuckle so you can replace the rod & keep the switch off. If that can't be done or car is not level when those are correct then we need to look elsewhere.
