Specs:
Kwikee electric RV entry steps provide an effortless, convenient way to enter and exit your RV. The steps are wired to your RV's door and feature an automatic extension, unfolding when the door opens and retracting when it closes. This differentiates the steps from the alternate manual pull-out steps.
The updated Kwikee steps manufactured since 1999 require the integrated motor, gearbox, and linkage (IMGL) setup to power the steps. The motor provides the power, the gearbox turns the linkage arm, and the linkage pushes the steps out and pulls them back in when rotated by the gearbox.
The switch kit consists of 2 magnetic sensor pieces that mount to the door and doorframe, and 1 rocker switch. When the sensor pieces come into contact with each toher, the steps are pushed in or pulled out. You can override the automatic retraction with the rocker switch. This will lock the steps in the extended position.
The included 4-way plug fits into the existing wiring harness on your RV. Most vehicles should have 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 23-3/4" 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 24-1/2" wide to 36-3/4" 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.

Powered RV entry steps with 23-3/4" mounting plate automatically open and close with your RV door. Motor extends and retracts step when it receives the signal from the switch kit. Amber light sold separately.Instructions were confusing and did not give simple details for installation of wiring. We had to run new wires and skip the ones that were original to our RV but once we figured out the switch, it was straightforward. The unit is very heavy so needed 2 guys to install it. 873894
Just what I needed. Great price. Fast and free delivery 679339
Arrived as scheduled, easy to install. Just had to swap the controller from old stairs to new stairs. All the mounting holes were the same as original. 655855
Works great. 635433
Perfect fit, motor is so quiet. Had to use my old control module and light (FYI) . I was worried the metal would not be a thick enough gauge. I was happy to see it was heavier gauge than my original Kwickee 326000. The local dealer wanted about $300. More than etailer.com, 609547
GOOD 1. It was an exact replacement for the step assembly that it was replacing. This means to install Bolted the new assembly in using the same mounting as the original. Just 4 5/16 bolts. BAD 1. It was my misunderstanding, but the light and direction control required to make the step go in and out was not part of what I purchased. I needed to take this part off the old assembly and bolt and wire it to the new step. FORTUNATELY, the problem with my step assembly was the motor and not the controller unit. 2. The box delivered was heavy. The unit weight ripped open the shipping container in transit. 3. The material recommended to lubricate the step assembly was not included. I was told that eTrailer does not sell it. 4. The manual provided has no information about how to install the unit mechanically. There is no way to open the stair assembly. The mounting bolts are very difficult to reach with the stairs retracted. 549719

Review from a similar Kwikee 32 Series in RV and Camper Steps
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. 876142

I used these steps on my 2006 Phaeton MH. These are same as the original so there was no problem replacing them. The old ones had a broken arm on the retracting scissor works. Etrailer had the best price of anywhere that I could purchase them. 875592

Very fast shipping and delivery. I have had my mechanic install the steps and he said they work perfectly. Thank you so much. 861245
Review from a similar Kwikee 32 Series in RV and Camper Steps
This replaced the original steps on my 2007 Damon MH, which were damaged. Installation was moderately difficult due to the weight of the unit. I used a floor jack to support the opened stairs for removal and installation. The electric connection matched the existing wiring. I only needed to replace the magnetic door switch with the one included, and relocate the ground connection to the coach frame. I was pleased to see that the yellow light is on a timer, and that the unit will retract when the battery switch is in the "store" position. 831269

The kwikee 32 replaced my steps on my 2007 tiffin allegro bus. All connections and bolt patters matched perfectly. These steps are heavy i used a jack to lift them into position for installation. 824638
Review from a similar Kwikee 32 Series in RV and Camper Steps
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. 823114
Review from a similar Kwikee 32 Series in RV and Camper Steps
This product was a perfect fit from my original steps on my RV. The only problem I had was the weight trying to pick this up and aligned the bolts. At my age of 72 you can see why, once my daughter arrived myself and her raised the steps in place and everything went perfect. I would highly recommend this product also customer service went beyond advising me on the order from the purchase and arriving of the steps at my home. 816210
Review from a similar Kwikee 32 Series in RV and Camper Steps
I originally tried to rebuild the step and wasted time and money. The step was ten years old and just had to go. The replacement had a better mechanical design and I look forward to more than ten years service. etrailer.com was excellent with a good price rapid delivery. I went back to etrailer for my tow bar. 808255
Review from a similar Kwikee 32 Series in RV and Camper Steps
It came with all the bolts and wiring harness I did not have to purchase anything else I mounted it on a 2008 Georgetown MH in one afternoon by myself. I did spend the day before getting the tools necessary. The most important step in the whole process is raising it up level to mate with the MH studs. It helps to have the MH level and on solid ground. All the plugs were correct and the door magnets were easy to mount. Everything worked on my first test and it has worked perfectly for a year now. Local rv dealers wanted 4-500$ and they had a waiting list. etrailer shipped on time with plenty of directions that even I could understand. 791350

Review from a similar Kwikee 32 Series in RV and Camper Steps
Got the steps today. Opened up the package to check contents. No damage to the steps but the vehicle side plug with pigtails was missing. Can't install the steps without it. Got on chat and talked to Ashley about the problem. She said they would send me the plug and email me tracking information. She referred to it as harness but the provided a photo which confirmed that what she was sending was the plug I needed. 774177
Review from a similar Kwikee 32 Series in RV and Camper Steps
the stairs bolted right in place and have been working great. the only problem I had was that the wiring was reversed from the stairs I took out so everything worked backwards, after figuring this out I just reversed some of the wires and it worked. 762991
