If you have time, I think (again, I think) you can swap the units to see if it's a wiring or housing issue. Obviously you have to pull the housing/lamps out....and hope the harnesses are long enough.

Finally, I think the dealer can control the functions of the lamps/motors with their devices.....it might cost you $100...but would be the fastest way to figure it out.

After writing this, I'd go with option 3 after doing a quick inspection of the connections.
If I recall the leveling motors have a 4 pin connector. You have to remove the torx screws on back cover of the headlamp housing to gain access. You can also swap them from left to right to test them out... as they are the same for each side. It would really be much easier to grab a hold of the proper diagnostic equipment and save yourself the hassle though...
