The switch can be used to add weight to the tag and subtract weight from the drive when passing through an Ohio toll booth where the axles are automatically weighed. I don't know if it's still true, but we used to be over the Ohio limit for a single axle.
It can be used to remove weight from the tag when turning a sharp corner or to add weight to the drive for traction. I actually used this once when the coach spun out on a snowy uphill.
The tags and the drive air bags are definitely hooked together. However, the switch activates a couple of three way valves that allow you to isolate the tag bags from the drive bags.
Richard, per your last statement then depending on where the leak is, could it be possible to add air to the tag and possibly lift that side of the coach proving the air leak is between the Drive bag and the 3-way valves to isolate the tag bag from the Drive tag? Again, theoretical I don't think I would try it but this could this process help get somebody off the road? Just trying to learn all the possibilities...
