view full answer... - Replacement Linkage for Kwikee 26 Series Single StepI spoke with Lippert about the Kwikee 26 Series Steps and they informed me that your best option is the Motor Upgrade Kit for Kwikee 26 Series Electric RV Steps part # LC379801 which replaces the motor, linkage, and control module. If the steps are original to the coach then the linkage kit is obsolete unfortunately which is why you need the update kit.
view full answer... - Solution for Kwikee RV Step 151320 with Broken Pin We've checked with the manufacturer of the electric step 151320 that you mentioned before and since the step is no longer made the replacement parts are not available. There wouldn't be an easy way to source the pin you are looking for. Therefore, your only and best option would be a full replacement which the most similar option is the Lippert Kwikee 32 Series Electric Step part # LC372261. These steps come with the motor, control unit, and switch kit.
