Video Transcript for Review of Kwikee RV and Camper Steps Parts - Replacement Motor for 42 Series - LC379167
Ellen: Hey everyone. I'm Ellen here at etrailer.com, and today we're going to be taking a quick look at the replacement motor for your quickie step. This is going to be for the 42 series steps. That's going to be the one that's kind of an enclosed housing, and it's going to slide directly out from your RV rather than kind of deploying out and down. So this is going to be that replacement motor if one happened to not be working for you, it started to fail out. This is going to be an older style step.
It's manufactured since 1999, so things can go bad. And this is going to be that piece that we need to make sure that everything's working again.So here's a little closer look at it. We're going to plug in our wiring up here at the top with that little port that's in there, and then the linkage arm is going to connect to this little gear here. So this is the part that's going to operate the automatic shutdown. So if you happen to deploy those steps out maybe a little too close to a pylon or some kind of obstacle, and it happens to strike that, it will automatically retract the step.
So if that's gotten broken or maybe got fried out, that would maybe be a reason why you'd want to replace this. Has the holes here to mount in place. Does not come with any additional hardware.As far as specs with this, it's going to be about six and three quarter inches long, and then four and three eighths inches wide. And about one inch, or excuse me, about two inches tall. The current draw for a clockwise operation is going to be 17.2 amps.
Counter-clockwise is 20.1 amps. The RPM rating for this is 40.4 in a clockwise configuration, and then 31.8 for counter-clockwise. It does weigh just about a pound and a half. 1.63 pounds. Has a one-year warranty and is made in the USA.That's about all there is to it for a replacement motor for the quickie step.
I hope this video's been helpful in deciding if this is going to be the right component for you. If not, we do have others available here etrailer.com, so check them out. Thanks for watching.

The motor looks like an exact replacement of the original. I have not yet installed it but expect no issues. The one disappointing feature is that it was advertise as made in America which confirmed the sale for me, but upon receiving the motor it is stamped made in China.

It is functioning well. No issues at all.

ETrailer's knowledge and service was spectacular! I thought it would be impossible to find a part for a 25 year old coach. The part arrived in three days. Installation was a bit difficult since the part had been redesigned, which is not ETrailer's fault. The part fit up was perfect. Once installed, the part performed flawlessly.
I'll use ETrailer in the future

- Replacement Cogwheel for Lippert Kwikee Step MotorAre you referring to the cogwheel attached to the end of the output shaft on a Lippert Components Kwikee Step Motor like part # LC379167? If so then no you would need to replace the entire motor as we do not offer the cogwheel separately. If this is not the part you are referring to please let me know.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Kwikee 42 Series Step that Motor Continues to Run for 2-3 Seconds After Steps ExtendIt could be that your Kwikee Series 42 Steps # LC372779 are just hanging up and bit and could use some lubricating spray on the gears; you'll want to use a dry silicone spray on these parts similar to the Roadmaster Lube Master # RM-747 to keep everything in working order. With that being said, this is also a sign that the motor on your Kwikee Series 42 steps could be weakening, so you'll want to keep an eye on this going forward. If it ends up that the motor goes out on your steps and...

I can help with the step motor and the water pump. For your water pump (since a motor isn't separate), I recommend the Flow Max RV Fresh Water Pump - 12 Volt - 3.3 Gallons Per Minute - 45 PSI # LC689052 if your current pump is powered by the coach batteries. If it is powered by shore power only, then I recommend the 115V option # LC689054. I've attached review...
