Recommendation For Replacement Door Switch For 2007 Forest River Georgetown RV

Question

Question:

I have a 2007 Forest River Georgetown and the steps have stopped working. The motor is fine, I replaced the module and that wasn't the problem. Will this magnetic door switch work for my model RV? Process of elimination tells me the door switch is the problem.

If the manufacturer of your steps is Lippert Components or Stromberg Carlson then the Replacement Door Switch for Lippert Electric Coach Step, Item # LC301694, is what you need. Lippert Components and Stromberg Carlson manufacture most of the OEM parts for RVs so high probability this will work for you. This Lippert switch replaces the door switch that comes with single, double, or triple electric Lippert Coach Step or Stromberg Carlson sliding step. All hardware needed for installation is included.

I have attached a link to a video for you to check out.

That's exactly why you need to use electric steps like what we see with the Kwikee Series 42 #LC372779 steps. Class A motorhomes just have that one entrance which would make it too difficult to utilize a pull down step like the Lippert…
