Replaces the electric steps and motor that work with your existing Kwikee control unit and switch kit. Control unit (sold separately) or switch kit (sold separately) is required for operation.
Features:
Specs:
Note: This step assembly includes the step and motor only. For the steps to work, you will need either a control unit, a switch kit, or both.
If you want the complete step assembly that allows the steps to automatically extend and retract with the RV door, you will need a control unit (sold separately). You will also need a switch kit (sold separately), which lets you override the automatic retraction, so the steps stay out whether the door is open or closed. The complete assembly with steps, motor, control unit, and switch kit is available under part number LC372261.
The included 4-way plug fits into the existing wiring harness on your RV. Most vehicles should having this wiring already set up. In the event that your RV is missing the wiring, a 4-way pigtail is included to help you hardwire the unit to your RV.
The Kwikee steps include several safety features in an effort to prevent injury to you or your passengers and damage to the RV steps. If an obstruction is detected while extending, the steps will halt and retract back into the stowed position. The steps will also retract when you turn on the vehicles ignition, even if the automatic retraction override has been activated, in case you forget to stow them before driving away.
Will Kwikee Electric Steps Work for You?
Electric steps are typically installed on RVs and some travel trailers. The electric steps from Kwikee install and fold up underneath the camper for simple storage. To ensure you choose the correct size for your application, there are a few measurements you will need to take.
The Kwikee electric steps attach to the underside of the camper chassis, directly beneath the doorway. To decide which size you'll need, locate the space available underneath your camper that lines up with the doorframe, and measure the width and depth. You will need a mounting space that is at least 25-1/2" wide and 11-3/8" deep.
If it turns out you have more or less space beneath your doorway, there are other step assemblies available with bracket sizes ranging from 24-3/4" wide to 37-1/4" wide. A full list of the available steps is below.
Outriggers - metal brackets that act as an extension (LC301704 - sold separately) - may be needed for installation depending on the model of your original stairs. These provide extra length if the old steps are longer or wider than the new.
Once you know where the mounting bracket will go and what size mounting bracket you need, that spot will be used as the "mounting point" to determine how many steps you will need.
How Many Steps Do You Need?
To decide on how many steps you'll need, measure from the mounting point to the ground. This is called the entry height. The entry height should roughly match the height of the steps when they're fully extended, plus 6" to 8" to account for the drop from the bottom step to the ground. This measurement will also tell you how many steps you need.
The chart below displays mounting bracket widths in the first column and entry height measurements in the second column. The third column shows the corresponding part numbers. Use the mounting bracket width and entry height measurements you took to determine which part number will fit your RV. Choose the bracket size that is closest to your measurements without going over.

Replaces the electric steps and motor that work with your existing Kwikee control unit and switch kit. Control unit (sold separately) or switch kit (sold separately) is required for operation.Replaced a severly bent original series 32 step on a 2001 Dutch Star diesel pusher. Original step had a 7" hole pattern so I did have to drill two holes. Spliced the included motor connector to motorhome wiring & was able to use my old control unit. Looks great and works like new! No picture included cause of a snowstorm.
The steps came with decent timing, but when they arrived the box was damaged and on the back side of bottom step there was a slight bow in the metal. There was no stress crack so we are going to see if we can still use them. Other than that I felt that we had Good service.
Steps seem to be very well made and work as expected
I was very satisfied with the process of getting new steps for my Bounder . The price was right , [ $100.00 less than other places ] The service was good . They must be very busy because it takes a while to get through . But well worth it since I was not in any big rush . Rachel is a pro .. Thanks
Haven't installed yet...old and need help with muscle work. The sale was handled with considerate assistance and delivery was super quick. I will confidently contact you for any expert advice I might need during installation. Thank you
Was pretty tough to put on for one guy but I got it. I recommend getting stainless bolts. My old bolts were so rusted I had a hard time getting them off. The steps work great so far good and sturdy.
Right product at the right price!
Perfect exactly what we needed and you produced it. Thank you so much. We will definitely be buying more items from you.
Bolted right up and works perfectly!
Exactly what I needed installed and working great thanks
The ording was easy the person I talked to was very nice and made sure I ordered the right step.
I love my new steps! Very solid! I had to rebuild my entry step in my motorhome due to water damage. This actually made it easier to install bolt hole locations that lined up with the new step. The steps are very heavy but I used a short piece of wood and a pump up jack until I could align the bolt holes and insert 2 bolts/nuts to hold in place then removed the jack and lined up the other 2 locations. I'm a 65 year old woman and completed this project from start to finish 100% by myself. Was it easy? No, but obviously possible with enough ingenuity and patience. I also added steel angles to support the steps instead of just plywood that was originally in the coach. These are heavy duty steps, they don't flex under use and I wanted them to last which is why I reinforced the support system.
etrailer, as always, has performed excellently. I had some issues with the steps but it turned out to have nothing to do with etrailer. The on-off step switch is reversed, it something I can live with. I have a 2003 Mini Winnebago and this was the only Kwikee step made and available for my RV. I know because I called the company.
Came packed well,I'm 69 and the installation was pretty easy. etrailer has always been my go too for anything RV related.
Very happy with my Kwikee steps. Installation was a bit challenging but it actually went pretty smooth. The steps work great.
Excellent product. Highly recommend it to anyone who needs new steps.
2004 Fleetwood Flair Class A RV. My original RV steps (Kwikee 903206001) broke. I reached out to eTrailer and Anna recommended a direct replacement part # LC379145. This included all parts: steps, motor, gear, light. It bolted right up and all the control wiring plugged right into the original harness. I am very please with the new steps and eTrailer staff.
Quick shipping, bolted right up had to chance the RV pig tail operated in reverse changed out the door switch
Every thing operates as it should, nice product!!!! I will buy again from Etrailer.com!!!
