Replacement Gear, Motor, and Controller for Series 42 Kwikee Steps

Question

Question:

Hi Guys, I have the two step Lippert I believe. It has the gear that looks like a half moon. Do you have the motor and gear for this model? Also the sliders for the step? I have it out and it looks like a 42 double series.

If you do indeed have the Series 42 Kwikee Steps then the correct replacement motor/gear for you is the Lippert Components Kwikee Step Motor Assembly part # LC369473. We also offer the motor separately as part # LC369506 (same as Series 25) and the control module part # LC379146. I am not sure I know what you mean by the slider but if you send me a photo I will see if we have them.

I have attached a photo which shows how to identify a set of Kwikee steps.

Answer 5

The harness difference you found is because the control unit you should have ordered looks to be the #LC379604 which fits the newer versions of the step. Most likely the steps of your RV were replaced with a kit made after 2005.

Since you need the Replacement Control Unit for Kwikee 38 Series Electric RV Steps #LC363989 I'm assuming you have 38 series steps on your 2017 Thor Windsport. The correct replacement motor for these steps would be the #LC379147.
