Replaces the motor and table for your Kwikee powered RV entry steps. Motor provides power to control unit to extend and retract the steps. Gear rotates to push steps out and pull them back in. Weatherproof wiring and steel mounting table.The website said it was in stock; it wasn't. They sent me an email saying it would be a couple of weeks before they got more from the manufacturer. That worked for me as my big trip was a couple of months off. They kept me posted and shipped the product a week later. Can't really complain about that.
The pot metal drive gear on my motor was deeply gouged from the steel half-moon gear of the steps which also had some mangled teeth. The steps would jump during operation and wouldn't fully retract as it slipped over the damaged teeth. I contemplated rebuilding the motor myself as all it needed was the drive gear and a worn internal nylon worm gear but figured the price of a new motor was justified as my brushes and armature were also about 10 years old.
Kwikee recommends replacing the control unit with the motor which I question the reasoning of. However, the price of this motor and table set was a lot cheaper than buying the individual parts and you get a new table which has a nylon bushing that also wears out eventually, likely contributing to the wear on the gears. Now I have a spare control unit should I ever need one.
Install was fairly easy and straight forward, especially with the video on the website. One thing it doesn't show is that the step gear and motor assembly arrives in a half-retracted position so that it fits in the shipping box. It has to be fully deployed for the install. I thought about dismounting the motor to reposition the step gear but just applied a little power instead and it deployed right to where it needed to be. I also found it helpful to leave the four step mount bolts a little loose to facilitate lining up the link assembly. Once you get the link assembly connected, just position the motor table and tighten it down.
Six months later it is still working like the day it was born.
etrailer was very help full in my choice of parts for my class A motorhome Lippert step 25 Series. Thanks!
Perfect replacement. I received my package on the day we left for a weekend in the mountains. I threw the box in the camper with a couple tools and installed it the first morning we were there (I gave the directions to my wife to read as I replaced the unit to give her something to do) and it fit perfectly. It took me about 30 minutes to install and adjust for proper operation. Thank you so much for making this available!
Product is well made. Fit 2004 Winnebago Kwikkee steps perfectly. All items well packed includes all hardware and wiring.
However the bolt shaft on gear had a burr that prevented self locking nut to fit. Had to remove table and use a 3/8” die to clean threads and reinstall. Minor problem but quality control missed it
Made my old steps work like new. Came with great instructions easy to follow.my order came 2 days early etrailer is the great.
The Kwikee step replacement Kit for 25 Series IMGL/9510, Control - LC379804 fit my 2012 Winnebago Vista 35F step perfectly. I extended the stairs and then It was easy and quick to install, just remove the connecting rod and four bolts. I had now need for the control electronics, but buying this combination saved me about $180 over the cost of buying just the main plate with motor and mounting parts!
Save yourself the time and frustration of searching for parts online by calling etrailer and let them do the work for you.
Not only did Will find the correct part (he called Lippert directly) but it was less expensive than the one I had sourced on my own.
THANKS!
My order arrived really fast - 3 days after placing the order. The parts fit perfectly. All I had to do was remove the old unit, disconnect the wires. and reverse the procedure to install the new one. Took me 30 minutes.
My old unit had striped the gears. The new step mechanism included the controller, hardware and instructions . After doing the installation I did some test runs with the steps. That's where I think I figured out why the old one failed. I think the old controller wasn't turning off the power quick enough when the steps got to the end of their run; this caused too much stress on the gears.
The best part of my order was etrailer.com had a great price.
Pictures are of the old step motor assembly and the stripped gears.
Thanks etrailer.com
I was very happy that this upgrade kit was available. My step is too new to need the upgrade as it was built in 2006 but the large gear had bad teeth on it and replacement part is not available.
I used this kit for the gear and it worked perfect!
Now I have an extra controller.
Contrary to the manufacturers description, there is no door switch in the kit. The short wires in the kit go to the motor.

This is the best website! Not just for product availability and prices, but for excellent information and support. They are by far the best RV site!
This replacement motor assembly was easy to order, shipped quickly and arrived on time. I was told by our local RV dealer that I would not be able to find parts for the 25 Series stairs but thankfully they were wrong. I will definitely recommend my friends to check out etrailer.com to find parts for their RV’s.

Still working like new.
Kit arrived on the promised date in perfect shape. Installed it the next day. In place of the control unit from the kit, I used control unit 363982 which is a higher current limit unit. The step retracts and extends perfectly and is very quiet. Just like new. I also lubed all the moving joints with Kwik-Lube and used di-electric grease in the electrical connections. I could not be happier with these products.

Still working perfectly.
I'm happy with my service from etrailer.com, at least someone in the industry knows what's happening!! My experience with Lippert Ind. Is just that, an "experience" !! They gave me bogus info for a replacement part, totally wrong part number. As a happy customer of etrailer.com O will spread the good word and will definitely be back. Thank you for the excellent service.

yes, perfectly, no issues whatsoever.
My problem was that the controller went out on my Kwikee step on my 05 National Dolphin motor home. That controller is no longer manufactured so etrailer/kwikee wanted to sell me a whole new step mechanism. I could not get anybody at etrailer or kwikee (now Lippert) to tell me how the new controller was different from the old. It seemed like they knew more than they would tell me. Finally another motorhome owner on IRV2 sent me some kwikee literature that told me the exact differences. The use of the manual switch (to hold the step out or have it retract) using the new controller worked in reverse of the way it was used on the old controller. Also the drive wires to the step motor had been reversed. So after many fruitless phone calls to etrailer and kwikee (with this minor literature) I reversed the drive wires to the step motor, learned to use the manual switch in the opposite way, and everything worked. Although I cut and re-soldered the motor wires, I later found a place that sold a connector that did the wire reverse (local store). I also discovered it was possible to just take the wires out of the plastic connector to the motor and reverse them. I would have thought that etrailer would have known that it was so simple to use the new controller on the old step mechanism. Oh, also the new controller didn't fit where the old controller did, but there is lots of room under the step so I mounted it in a new place. Saved myself several hundred dollars.
Web site was easy to navigate and order. The part came as promised. I installed it with out and issues. The problem was ware on the gear on the motor and the teeth of the matching wheel.
Is it possible to bye a gear that goes on the motor? It would be good to carry it when the steps stop working next time.
Thank you

At this time there are not replacement parts available for motor components. The motor is sold as a replacement with part # LC369506. The gear on the table is also sold as a replacement part with part # LC369354.
Replaced older parts and steps work fine now.
etrailer.com,
I can't say enough good things about this company, or the product.
Not only did they offer a fairly sizeable discount on this part, they actually helped me verify it was the part I needed. They called me back in a very short time with the information to my questions asked.
Then they sent tracking information, the part arrived early. it bolted up and functioned perfect.
I was also informed if it didn't work, I could return it. And they explained the return policy in simple, complete, instructions.
In this era of impersonal ordering on the internet, there was actually personal service from etrailer.com.
Thank you.
I am very happy with the order it is exactly what you picked. The price is fair for all the components in the kit I haven’t had time to install it yet because other priorities has come up. I’m Sure i will have no problem installing it. Again very good product well made good price
This item arrived on time and installed quick and easy. I't too bad that you can't order just the parts you need (gears in my case) it could have been a lot cheaper. I did have some issues with my payment, their system would not let me complete my transaction using a Canadian credit card (Canadian billing address) and shipping it to Hemet California (US shipping address) I had to us a PayPal account to complete the order.
My original 25 Series step, approximately 3 years old, started making a loud noise and was not retracting or extending all the way without help. My order arrived today and i installed the new Kwikee 25 Series step and control unit. It was simple to follow the provided instructions and now works as good as new.
The part turned up exactly on time, which was great as there was a limited time window for delivery at the campground we were staying at.
Part was exactly as described and has been fitted and works well. Full fitting instructions were included.
Ordering the Replacement Motor with Table was a time saver and made for a quick and easy repair for my Series 25 stairs. I only had to remove and replace 5 bolts and disconnect one cable to complete the repair. It now’s works smooth and quiet.
Great service and good prices. This is the second time i have ordered from Etrailer and once again I had a wonderful experience. I received my order faster than anticipated and got just what i ordered. I also saved over 200 dollars compared from what it was going to cost me from a dealer.
Service was excellent. Received the item and and after about an hour of easy work the steps are working great!
Exactly what I wanted, great price and arrived early. Website was clear and specific on product details, took the confusion out of the repair project.
This is the second time I’ve used ETrailer very satisfied with there help and availability of product.
