The Rv is a 2000 so I thought there might be a problem getting replacement parts. The new motor and gearbox fit perfectly!
by: Mary 03/06/2024
Haven’t installed yet but very impressed with etrailer’s attention to detail and responsiveness!
by: Theodore K.04/06/2019
I was impressed with the new motor/gear box, control unit and switches. The thickness of the cardboard box was no match for the weight of the motor. The motor almost escaped it's containment during shipping. I did not have to use the new switch since my door switch was a 'Normally Open Style'. The installation was simple and the step and all the features work well. I am HAPPY.

The package came the day it was supposed to. Install was reasonably easy, on my 1994 travelaire motorhome with a few wiring issues. Overall a great product.

Your part's service is great as for the parts there part's but thank you for the great service
by: Wayne07/25/2020
This was a rebuild kit for the Kwikee Series 28 motorized step on my motor home. The control unit that originally came with the step assembly had failed, so the step would extend, but not retract. I could not simply buy a replacement control unit because it was obsolete. (The unit is over 17 years old.) This kit included a new motor/gear linkage assembly, the controller, integrated wiring harness, and hardware. The instructions included with the kit were very detailed, but really not needed because it was simply a matter of removing the old hardwire and installing the new. Even the wiring was the same. I now have a step that works like it's supposed to.

The Kwikee update kit that I purchased a year ago from etrailer, breathed new life into my 2000 vintage step and it has operated flawlessly ever since. Thanks etrailer!
by: James 03/03/2023
Easy ordering, and easy install. Works perfectly.
by: Daniel11/12/2018
The new controls matched up and was a good and quick change out. If I would have put my man instinct aside and read all of the instructions and changed out the door sensor I would have been done sooner. Thanks for a good price and product.
by: Keith03/19/2019
Everything worked great easy to install. Have to be careful to order the right one there is a series 28 and series 28A and they take different model replacement kits.

- Solution for Older Kwikee Series 39 RV Steps that Need New Gear BoxDue to the age of your Series 39 step you would need to upgrade it to the current style which would require you to use the part # LC379769 which comes with a new motor, gear box and controller.
view full answer... - Motor Not Shutting Off on Lippert Kwikee Series 28 Electric RV StepI spoke with my contact at Lippert regarding your Kwikee 28 Series Single Electric Step # LC3747452. He stated that the most likely cause for the motor not to shut off on your unit is a faulty gear. The damaged part is simply not able to offer any resistance to shut the motor off. For a Replacement Repair Kit, you will want to use part # LC379769. This is designed for the Series 28 Electric Step and includes the integrated motor, gearbox, linkage and control unit.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting A Kwikee 39 Series Electric Steps that Keeps Blowing FusesBlowing a fuse is a key indicator that there is faulty wiring, so that's going to be what you need to check. You're going to need to go through your wiring and make sure there aren't wires touching, broken, or pinched. If you've checked your wiring and found no breaks or damaged wires, then the last thing I'd recommend you check is the motor. A bad motor would also cause your fuses to blow if it's not getting the proper voltage. You'll want to make sure that your motor is getting 12V,...
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Upgrade Older Kwikee 28 Series StepsTo make the new motor # LC379147 and gearbox # LC379161 compatible with your older Kwikee 28 series steps, you will actually need pigtail # LC369243 as well as a new control box # LC379146. I confirmed this with my contact at Lippert. He also stated that all these parts are included in their complete Motor Upgrade kit # LC379769, but since you had already purchased the motor and gearbox, you just need the correct pigtail and control box, and you'll be all set!
view full answer... - Replacement Parts for Older Lippert Kwikee Series 28 Electric Coach StepI confirmed with my contact at Lippert that motor kit # LC379608 and linkage kit # LC379648 are indeed the correct replacement parts for your older Kwikee Series 28 electric coach step. My contact indicated you do NOT also need linkage kit # LC379161. We do also have an update kit for this older step, part # LC379769, which includes the latest design integrated motor/gearbox/linkage. This brings your step more in line with their current production models. Another option that might cost...
view full answer... - Replacement Control Unit for Lippert 28 Series Kwikee StepsThe correct control unit for your 28 Series Kwikee steps is part # LC379146 on our site. This is the same control unit that is included in the Kwikee Steps Replacement Kit # LC379769 for 28, 31, 37, and 39 series steps.
view full answer... - Replacement Gearbox, Motor, and Linkage for 2002 Allegro BusThank you so much for all of the info! I reached out to my contact at Lippert and he said that with how old your setup is you're going to be better off going with an entire replacement kit because if you just replace one component right now then you'll likely need to upgrade the other component soon. If your 2002 Allegro Bus has a single step then the kit you need is part # LC379769, but if it has a double step then the kit you need it part # LC379145.

If it does then I'd agree that just the control unit needs to be replaced. If it doesn't then you likely need to replace the motor as well. If your gearbox needs to be...

view full answer... - How to Determine the Correct Motor Upgrade Kit for Kwikee Series 28 StepsFrom what I found on the Kwikee steps 902806000, they are the 28 series steps. The correct motor upgrade kit will depend on the linkage that you have. The linkage identifier (A or B) is embossed on the linkage arm. If you have the 28A then the Motor Upgrade Kit for Kwikee Electric RV Steps # LC379145 is the correct motor upgrade kit. If you do not have the 28A, then you would want the Motor Upgrade Kit for Kwikee Electric RV Steps # LC379769.

view full answer... - Conversion Kit for Lippert Kwikee Electric Step Model # 2775What parts are you missing from your Kwikee steps? The conversion kits come with a motor, linkage and controller so if these are the parts you are missing then we may have an option for you. However, I spoke to my contact at Lippert and they informed me that there is no guarantee the Lippert Components Kwikee Step Motor Conversion/Upgrade Kit part # LC379145 for double steps or the Lippert Components Kwikee Step Motor Conversion/Upgrade Kit part # LC379769 for single steps will work as...
view full answer... - Replacement Parts for Kwikee Series 28 Electric RV Steps For Complete SetupFor your Lippert Series 26 step, I recommend the Lippert Components Kwikee Step power switch and door kit # LC369311 and then using controller # LC379146. Then you will also add the Lippert Components Kwikee Step Replacement Light # LC379414. This will work the single step # LC3747451 which comes with gears and motor only. If you are unsure of the current gear box and motor, then you would use the complete kit # LC379769.

view full answer... - Availability Of Replacement Linkage For Older Pre-IMGL Kwikee Series 28 StepsI would be happy to help! Since the direct replacement linkage for your older Pre-IMGL Kwikee Series 28 steps has recently been discontinued, you will need to go with the Motor Upgrade Kit for Kwikee 28 Series Steps # LC379769. This kit includes a new motor, linkage, and gear box which are the new design to make it so that your steps use the components of the IMGL steps so you can find replacement parts in the future as needed. I included a video of the # LC379769 for you to take a look at.
view full answer... - Replacement Motor Kit for Lippert Kwikee 39 Series Step Assembly I spoke with my contact regarding your Kwikee 39 Series (model 909506000) step assembly. He stated that the Motor Conversion/Upgrade Kit # LC379145 you referenced is actually not compatible with your particular Series 39 assembly. You will instead need to use the Lippert Replacement Kit # LC379769. This kit will work perfectly with your steps and includes the IMGL (integrated motor/gearbox/linkage) and the 9510 Control Unit.
view full answer... - How to Pick Out Replacement Motor for RV StepsThere's a few ways to do it. If you can get the number off of the motor on the step that can help identify what it is. If you can determine what series step it is that helps too. Pictures of the motor and step will help a lot. There are several styles of steps and some have different generations so the key is determining what step you have, what version of it you have and then selecting the replacement motor based on that. So the step you referenced is the Lippert Kwikee 28 Series part...

For a Series 28 electric single step on a 1996 Coachman you'll need to upgrade the unit to current parts, according to my contact at Lippert. If your step linkage is curved use kit Conversion/Upgrade Kit # LC379145. If the step linkage is straight then use kit # LC379769. Please compare the photos of these items to your unit to determine the correct upgrade kit.

If you were just updating the motor, then you would use the Lippert Components Kwikee Step Motor Replacement # LC379147.
