These Kwikee 40 Series electric steps automatically extend and retract through the included switch kit, giving you steady access at the press of a button. The 12V motor works with a gearbox for smooth, reliable motion and retracts safely if it strikes an obstacle. Each of the two steps measures 24" wide x 11-1/8" deep with an 8-1/4" rise, giving you a comfortable, stair-like feel as you step in and out.
When you’re climbing in after dark or in wet weather, the non-slip tread and reflective strips make every step easy to see and secure. The amber incandescent light shines directly on the step surface, so you can clearly spot your footing and avoid missteps.
Made from sturdy, powder-coated steel with solid steel drive rods and stainless steel bushings, this step assembly resists rust and flex. The weatherproof wiring and air-pressed rivets at the pivot points keep the mechanism strong and reliable through years of outdoor use.
When retracted, the steps fold to a 6-3/4" height under the doorway, staying clear of road debris. Fully extended, they provide a stable 17-1/4" height and can hold up to 300 lbs without wobbling. It’s a simple, solid solution for anyone who wants dependable steps that move with a switch instead of manual lifting.
This assembly includes the steps, motor, and switch kit, designed to replace original Kwikee 40 Series units. The mounting plate measures 24-1/4" wide x 14-5/8" deep with a 20-1/2" by 12-7/8" bolt pattern, ready to line up with existing holes for a clean installation and a factory-fit finish.

Salesperson was outstanding
The product came quickly and was just as advertised. Very HAPPY!!
Install went great. A direct bolt on for a 2005 Jayco Greyhawk 31SS.
Super job guys . I will order again from yall .
Great company
I am 78 years old and removed the old step and installed the new one in about 4 hours. I have a 93 Safari that is in great shape and this makes it better.
Easy to find and order. Received in a very timely manner. Very happy with the product.
After one year it has performed perfectly. I installed it myself as a complete unit
Good product, it was sometime before I had time to install it but all went well. It is such a relief knowing it is safe to step up or down. Thanks
When we finally got around to getting someone to install the steps, they were not the right ones to fit even though we were led to believe they were. All new holes had to be drilled & after they were installed we can hardly get up & down the top step. It is much too far from that step to the motor home. We had to devise a piece of wood to secure to the top step when we’re out so we don’t have to climb so far! Also the steps do not go in flush with the motor home as they should. It had been so long since they were purchased & we figured there was nothing we could do once installed but they are not right & may cause a problem when we go to sell the unit.
After injury and age, getting in and out of a leveled RV is one high step. Having these steps reliably and sturdily come out each and very time needed is a big deal. I installed this on an older RV and for folks that have older RV's please note; the micro-switches in the the door frame are opposite of what are needed for today's control logic. As a result, I added a "Reversing relay" to create the proper signal from the door to have the steps operate as designed.
I ordered electric steps in Feb and it was April 5th when I opened the box only to find that it was broken during shipping . I called that day and sent pics of the damage . etrailer said they would send replacement and it arrived today . I've never had such quick response. I want to thank you guys for handling this for me and I'll recommend yall to everyone that I can . Thanks again
These steps will be a perfect match to the original and will be installing them soon. Looking to to replacing the bent up, unrepairable and unsafe steps. Thank you ETRAILER for your expertise.
Bolt-on replacement. Some splicing required, mostly because whoever installed the last one added some unnecessary lights.
A challenge to lift into place, but I used a hydraulic auto jack to assist.
Only problem, the high current shutoff feature (when current increases, the control system shuts off the motor because increased current should mean the step reached the end of its travel) stops the steps prematurely. I'm hoping that as the steps wear in, this will stop happening. Until then, I need to provide a slight force upward when the steps retract to get them all the way up.
Great fit, heavy, have a jack and maybe a helping hand or two.
Etrailer was easy to shop online, great price and fast shipping I ordered my kwikee step on Sunday and it was at my house on Tuesday. The installation was easy remove and replace using a small jack to hold the step in position. I did have an issue with the wire going to the motor, the retainer clip somehow was broken on arrival and would not hold the connector to the motor but a zip tie took care of that problem. The steps did not come with new magnetic switch so will have to order one separately the one on my rv was not working. Overall great shopping experience. Will shop here in the future.
Great product and amazing customer serv ice
