Replaces the control unit on your Kwikee powered RV entry steps. Unit wires steps to RV and works with motor (sold separately) to automatically extend and retract steps when the RV door is opened and shut. Fits 40 series steps.
Features:
Specs:
The ignition override feature is a safety feature that will retract your steps if the RV's ignition is sensed. This way, if you forget to stow your steps, they will retract automatically to prevent damage while traveling.

This was an exact replacement for my 2018 Newmar. The description, on the etrailer website, was a bit confusing regarding which steps it fit. I called and William got things straighted out and on order.
Excellent customer service.
This was quite simple to install. All the wires are made to plug right in to the existing wires. The “bolt pattern” to reattach the control unit is the same as well. I was a bit surprised that the 3, 1/4” self-tapping were not included - so save the old ones that came off the original controller.
The unit was easy to install and worked perfectly. I had a question about shipping and the customer rep was very personable and helpful.
Great customer service!!
The price was triple what I paid for one from Amazon, but this one worked perfectly.
As advertised, works- so far so good!
Exact replacement part and I had it in two days. Reasonable price.

Flawless. I just expect it to work all the time now, and dont really even think about it.
Installed with no issues.
Just installed it and seems to be working fine, time will tell
Good price, quick to ship, easy fit and seems to be working flawlessly. The old controller was intermittent and the issue may have just been the ground connection to chassis but if the problem is gone fit good, I don’t care.
The only delay in receiving it was caused by the Post Office and that was just a couple of days. I’d pay a little for freight to avoid USPS.
Thank you for helping me identify which controller to purchase. I installed it and everything is working like it should.
Outstanding customer service.
I want to say that this company employs very professional and knowledgeable people. The product that we ordered arrived quickly, packed great and was so easy to install it was almost to easy. Just change each wire with the matching one on the old item. Actually the new one screwed right in to the old holes from the old product. He finished installing it and low and behold our motor home step was working perfectly! Thanks Noah for have the knowledge of exactly what I needed. Now we know where to turn for things we need. Great company etrailer!

Great - Our RV steps are working fine and we havent had any issues at all! Thanks again!
Working perfectly!
When you need that step kit with that #. Works great
Thank you for all your help. Part I needed for my Motorcoach.
Back up and running
Steps were possessed and while traveling down the road. Would extend and retract on their own. Unplugged the power to them to get home. The part ordered was identical to what was on the RV including the factory part#. I had replaced the magnetic switch before getting this but the steps extended when the ignition switch was turned on. The original controller had the purple wire going to the mag switch and the black wire went to the step light. Hooked it back up that way and steps retracted when ignition switch was turned on. This was on a 2019 Jayco Greyhawk.
Service was great from etrailer. Thanks guys.
I used this to replace the failed unit on my 2018 Berkshire 38A RV. It was a direct replacement and has been working fine for a year now.
This item worked great and eiser to ins tall.
The part was a direct replacement. All wiring connections except 1 were plug and play. My rv had 1 connection hardwired, simply cut the plug off and made the connection. I replaced both the motor and controller at the same time. All of the troubleshooting pointed to both. It took me longer to gather all of the tools than to make the repairs.
Less than one week before due to leave on 2 month camping trip. Controller for Kwikee power steps on motorhome failed. Contacted Tammie at etrailer for help. As always, they came through with flying colors. Had the controller available and shipped to me with delivery 2 days after.
Controller was exactly what I needed and very easy to install.
etrailer and Tammie in particular, saved the day for us
Superb company with service that is above and beyond and shows what excellent customer service is.
everything worked
This controller replaced a shorted unit (would blow 25A fuse) on a 2000 class A RV. I had to splice the motor connector off the old unit as it was different (the wires were the same color). The logic on this unit is reversed regarding the on/off switch by the door, but works just fine.
I was really unsure if I was ordering the right part, but after talking on line with one of your reps, he assured me it would work. Shipping was free and I received it in a few days, got it installed on the RV, and it works great! The cost was about half what I would have paid, at other places. So I am thrilled with the cost and the customer service! I will be back in the near future!
Christina in customer service was outstanding. She helped me get the correct replacement parts. We had to hard wire the motor since two wires to the control unit and the motor were not the same type connector (male/female) to connect. But we are extremely satisfied.
