Troubleshooting Kwikee Steps Not Responding to the Override Switch
Question:
My steps do not respond to override switch. They open and close everytime I use the doors. I changed the override switch and that did not fix problem. Should i change control module and if so what model number would work mine is 15100000140 rev ga. Im a 77 year old female single traveler that is pretty handy. Would this be a job that i could do myself. Thanks for your help

The correct replacement control for your 1510000140 step control is the Replacement Control Unit for Kwikee # LC363985.
Since most of your functions seem to be working correctly, I would start by checking the 4-way connector before replacing the control unit, it is likely you have a malfunction with the door switch, power switch or wiring. It sounds like your motor is working fine, if your 4-way connector checks out then it could very well be a control issue.
It sounds like you are pretty handy, if you were able to change out your override switch then I think there is a good chance you can handle the control until as well.
I have included some diagrams for testing the 4-way connector and an installation video for the replacement step control.
