Etrailer.com was instrumental in helping me diagnose the problem and identify the correct parts needed. After I installed this kit and lubed all the contact points my step now works flawlessly. Thank you Etrailer.com!!!!!
The service was excellent. Ashley sent the correct part the motor for kiwkee steps the only problem the new parts changed the mounting bolts to a smaller size the old ones were a1/4"size I had to drill the motor plate to the correct size and also the bottom plate. Less than 30 minute for complete job worked well . These older steps have larger bolts than the motors you don't need the bushing in the motor .part I drilled out with a 1/4" left hand bit.
Had to get larger diameter bolts to fit gearbox, had to drill motor mounting holes to the larger size to attach the motor to gearbox. It was a pain but I got it done. It works great.
This will work just fine.

This was the exact part to make our steps work like brand new!
You site provided replacement information for my motorhome step even though the motorhome is 20 years old. The information was a great help. The motor fit. Problem solved.
This motor was the perfect replacement for the tired old step motor on my 21-year-old motor home. It fit perfectly including the new wiring pigtail. It came with detailed replacement instructions which were valuable in figuring out how the linkage assembly went back together. The steps operate so quietly now! I'm glad that Kwikee continues to make replacement components for its older steps.
Adam E was a great help. very knowledgeable about the product. let me know where and when my order would arrive, and when I received the product it was easy to replace the old with the new and now my steps are working great
Thank you Adam E for your help and I will be calling you for my next purchase.
Unit worked on the step and works fine. Great for a motor that is supposed to be obsolete and out of production. I guess it's the gearbox that is obsolete.

Steps are still working great. The original problem was that the stairs would not lock out in the open position or return to close position. with E trailers staff help determine that the gear set in the motor drive was bad and with their help we were able to find the correct motor. I would also say that whenever I’ve had a problem with parts they were able to help me determine the proper parts for the job which I appreciate greatly what’s again keep up the great work.??
bolts that mount the motor to the gear box were the wrong size. they would go thru the holes in the motor but were too small to screw into the gear box. had to drill out the motore holes to get the right size bolts thru to screw into the gear box. screws also were too short
Thanks to Lauren and Nicole for their kindness helping me select a replacement motor for my Kwikee electric steps. I have not had the opportunity to install it and confirm that it works but am hopeful that it will! I also trust that the refund for the motor I had to return will be posted soon. The mistaken order was made because I was a not aware that the vintage of the motor home was so important . One suggestion would be to include vintage and model information in the order form for products that are sensitive to those features. It was refreshing to speak with real people and get extension numbers in case follow up questions arise. I will be using etrailer again for a Parts and information

It is working fine. The installation was a bit tricky but I took my time and am pleased with the results. Thanks again for the personal touches your representatives offered me.
After extensive online research, etrailer's site offered the most information on the electric step motor that I was looking for. The original motor was discontinued but they cross referenced a replacement. Their price was better than their competitors and service was "over the top". I received the motor earlier than promised and I was able to install it prior to leaving on a scheduled trip.
The folks at etrailer followed up immediatly with any questions I had.
I would highly recommend etrailer!!

No very well. A couple of months after it was installed I noticed that the motor continues to run after the step is fully retracted making a continuous clicking noise. Speaking with someone at technical services was no help. Im sure its just a mater of time before it breaks again
Bryan: Received the kwikee step motor assembly today (on time). Installed the assembly in under 30 minutes and our steps are operating again. I do apologize for doubting your solution to my problem, but you were dead on with the fix. Again, you were the first and only person (company) that I could actually speak with the old way, on the telephone. Thanks again and next time I need help of this type, you will be hearing from me.

Motor is working perfect
This has been an exhaustive process. I first ordered the step gear but this would not fit my motor. I then ordered a new motor and it too would not fit the gear assembly. I returned the motor and with help from the service department ordered a new motor. The attachment screws with the replacement motor will not fit the gear assembly. Replacement of the motor and gear assembly [for a series 32 model step] really should not be this difficult.

Thank you for your review. After looking at all the products that did not work for you, I have found that this kit should be the answer: part # LC379145.
Works great.
We have a 2002 Newmar Mountain Aire with series 32 steps. This motor replaced the original one and works great with the old gear box and linkage. Thank you!

Outstanding
We bought a replacement Kwikee step motor for our Winnebago Aspect from etrailer 1 year ago. They had the best price. The parts were correct, everything fit, was easy to install and has worked great ever since.
I am delighted. Having found etrailer.com listed a "direct replacement" for the motor for the Kwikee Model 32 steps, I placed the order. I received it yesterday and installed it in just a few minutes. Steps operate as new again. VERY pleased!
I purchased the motor to replace the original unit on a 2002 Gulf Stream BT Cruiser with Kwikee 23 Steps, motor #1 51332. The original gear box is in great shape and everything operates smoothly when manually pushing in and pulling out the steps with original motor removed. The new unit bolted up and plugged in fine, but simply did not have enough power to operate the three step system. The motor was very quiet, but was not able to fully extend or retract the steps. I did notice the electric motor part of the unit was much smaller and lighter (and I assume less powerful) than the original. I expect the motor would work great on a one or two step system, but was too anemic for the original Kwikee 23 gearbox and step on our RV.
The motor worked great, and the installation was fairly easy. I did have to splice the new pigtail into our existing wiring because the plug was different on our '97 unit. The instructions were fairly thorough and easy to understand. The person who took our order was helpful in picking out the correct replacement. It arrived when expected - which was very good (tight time frame to fix the unit). There was a glitch after installing and testing the unit. It worked fine, then mysteriously stopped. After checking the wiring, I gave up for the evening. Next morning, it started working again. Go figger! Your staff was helpful and knowledgeable, and we wouldn't hesitate to use you again. And recommend you to our friends. Thank you!
I was nervous when I first saw it ,it looked awful small didn’t know if it would move those steps or not put it on work great very happy so far

Great no problem
This motor and gearbox replaced the one on my 2000 Monaco Diplomat. I hated the expense of replacing the motor and gearbox as a unit as I thought is was just a motor problem. But after disassembling the old gearbox I found cracked plastic parts which accounted for its intermittent operation. This bolt in replacement made it an easy do it yourself repair. It has been in operation on my coach for about a year without a problem.
