Replacement Motor 1101422 / 214-1001 and Gear Box for Kwikee Electric RV Steps

Question:

My steps raise and lower but at the end they chatter for about 5 seconds, like grinding gears. In fact when closing they dont quite go all the way in, maybe an inch from fully retracted. They open all the way but again the chattering at the end for 5 or so seconds. Motor and gear box?? Attached a picture which might help.

It does sound like a motor and gear box issue, and so long as your steps are from 2006 or newer (there should be a sticker verifying the year on the motor) then we have exactly what you need with a new motor and and gear box/linkage for your 1101422 / 214-1001 motor:

- Replacement Gear Box and A Linkage for Kwikee Electric RV Steps # LC379160

If your steps are from before 2006 you would need to replace them, so I have added a link to our selection of Kwikee steps for you if that's the route you need to take. I have also added links to some video reviews of these parts to check out if you'd like.
