I was impressed with the new motor/gear box, control unit and switches. The thickness of the cardboard box was no match for the weight of the motor. The motor almost escaped it's containment during shipping. I did not have to use the new switch since my door switch was a 'Normally Open Style'. The installation was simple and the step and all the features work well. I am HAPPY.

The new motorgear box works so good that Ive forgotten all about it. It is extremely dependable. Thank you for a great product.



by:

The Rv is a 2000 so I thought there might be a problem getting replacement parts. The new motor and gearbox fit perfectly!



by:

Haven’t installed yet but very impressed with etrailer’s attention to detail and responsiveness!



by:

This was a rebuild kit for the Kwikee Series 28 motorized step on my motor home. The control unit that originally came with the step assembly had failed, so the step would extend, but not retract. I could not simply buy a replacement control unit because it was obsolete. (The unit is over 17 years old.) This kit included a new motor/gear linkage assembly, the controller, integrated wiring harness, and hardware. The instructions included with the kit were very detailed, but really not needed because it was simply a matter of removing the old hardwire and installing the new. Even the wiring was the same. I now have a step that works like it's supposed to.



by:

The Kwikee update kit that I purchased a year ago from etrailer, breathed new life into my 2000 vintage step and it has operated flawlessly ever since. Thanks etrailer!



by:

The package came the day it was supposed to. Install was reasonably easy, on my 1994 travelaire motorhome with a few wiring issues. Overall a great product.



by:

Your part's service is great as for the parts there part's but thank you for the great service



by:

Everything worked great easy to install. Have to be careful to order the right one there is a series 28 and series 28A and they take different model replacement kits.



by:

The new controls matched up and was a good and quick change out. If I would have put my man instinct aside and read all of the instructions and changed out the door sensor I would have been done sooner. Thanks for a good price and product.



by:

electric steps working again, good instruction with product



by:

Easy ordering, and easy install. Works perfectly.

  • Motor Upgrade Kit For Kwikee Steps With Motor 1101422
    As you have a pre-IMGL motor you are going to need a Motor Upgrade Kit.

This information can be identified on the side tag with the 3rd and 4th digit in the part number. Motor Upgrade Kit for Kwikee 28, 31, 37, and 39 Series Electric RV Steps # LC379769 Motor Upgrade Kit for Kwikee 22, 23, 28A, 30, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 38, and 40 Series Electric RV Steps...

  • Replacement Gear Box 28 Series Steps on 2000 Itasca Spirit
    If you just need the gearbox, the linkage will have an A, B, or C.

  • Availability Of Replacement Linkage For Older Pre-IMGL Kwikee Series 28 Steps
    I would be happy to help! Since the direct replacement linkage for your older Pre-IMGL Kwikee Series 28 steps has recently been discontinued, you will need to go with the Motor Upgrade Kit for Kwikee 28 Series Steps # LC379769. This kit includes a new motor, linkage, and gear box which are the new design to make it so that your steps use the components of the IMGL steps so you can find replacement parts in the future as needed.

  • Replacement Parts for Older Lippert Kwikee Series 28 Electric Coach Step
    I confirmed with my contact at Lippert that motor kit # LC379608 and linkage kit # LC379648 are indeed the correct replacement parts for your older Kwikee Series 28 electric coach step. My contact indicated you do NOT also need linkage kit # LC379161. We do also have an update kit for this older step, part # LC379769, which includes the latest design integrated motor/gearbox/linkage. This brings your step more in line with their current production models. Another option that might cost...

  • Parts Needed to Upgrade Older Kwikee 28 Series Steps
    To make the new motor # LC379147 and gearbox # LC379161 compatible with your older Kwikee 28 series steps, you will actually need pigtail # LC369243 as well as a new control box # LC379146. I confirmed this with my contact at Lippert. He also stated that all these parts are included in their complete Motor Upgrade kit # LC379769, but since you had already purchased the motor and gearbox, you just need the correct pigtail and control box, and you'll be all set!

  • Replacement Parts for Kwikee Series 28 Electric RV Steps For Complete Setup
    For your Lippert Series 26 step, I recommend the Lippert Components Kwikee Step power switch and door kit # LC369311 and then using controller # LC379146. Then you will also add the Lippert Components Kwikee Step Replacement Light # LC379414. This will work the single step # LC3747451 which comes with gears and motor only. If you are unsure of the current gear box and motor, then you would use the complete kit # LC379769.

  • How to Pick Out Replacement Motor for RV Steps
    There's a few ways to do it. If you can get the number off of the motor on the step that can help identify what it is. If you can determine what series step it is that helps too. Pictures of the motor and step will help a lot. There are several styles of steps and some have different generations so the key is determining what step you have, what version of it you have and then selecting the replacement motor based on that. So the step you referenced is the Lippert Kwikee 28 Series part...

  • Replacement Kwikee Step 28 Series Linkage and Motor
    I reached out to my contact at Lippert and on the 28 series step you will have a B linkage. If you were just updating the linkage, then you would use the Lippert Components Kwikee Step Gear/Linkage with B # LC379161. If you were just updating the motor, then you would use the Lippert Components Kwikee Step Motor Replacement # LC379147. You can simply replace these components, but you may want to consider the Lippert Components Kwikee Steps Upgrade Kit for 28 Series # LC379769 which will...

  • Replacement Motor and Control Unit for Kwikee Series 39 Steps
    The replacement components for your Kwikee Series 39 Steps on your 1999 Damon Ultrasport include the following: Control Unit - # LC379606 Motor - # LC379147 Gearbox - # LC379161 Since your gearbox looks to be in good working order I'd try applying power to the motor directly to see if everything operates as it should. If it does then I'd agree that just the control unit needs to be replaced. If it doesn't then you likely need to replace the motor as well. If your gearbox needs to be...

  • Motor Not Shutting Off on Lippert Kwikee Series 28 Electric RV Step
    I spoke with my contact at Lippert regarding your Kwikee 28 Series Single Electric Step # LC3747452. He stated that the most likely cause for the motor not to shut off on your unit is a faulty gear. The damaged part is simply not able to offer any resistance to shut the motor off. For a Replacement Repair Kit, you will want to use part # LC379769. This is designed for the Series 28 Electric Step and includes the integrated motor, gearbox, linkage and control unit.

  • Is There a Replacement Gearbox and Motor for 1989 Electric Step
    So while we do have some options for you, there are no longer specific motors and gearboxes for electric steps manufactured before 1999, so for your 1989 Pace Arrow, what you will likely need is a motor upgrade kit, which includes the motor, linkage, control unit, switch kit, and hardware for installation. Keep in mind that this would only be for specific Kwikee steps, with the right one depending on the series of Kwikee step you have. - Kwikee Series 22, 23, 28A, 30, 32, 33, 34, 35,...

  • How to Determine the Correct Motor Upgrade Kit for Kwikee Series 28 Steps
    From what I found on the Kwikee steps 902806000, they are the 28 series steps. The correct motor upgrade kit will depend on the linkage that you have. The linkage identifier (A or B) is embossed on the linkage arm. If you have the 28A then the Motor Upgrade Kit for Kwikee Electric RV Steps # LC379145 is the correct motor upgrade kit. If you do not have the 28A, then you would want the Motor Upgrade Kit for Kwikee Electric RV Steps # LC379769.
