Expert Reply:
Since the Lippert Components Kwikee 25 Series Triple Electric Step # LC3658373 won't stay out when you flip the wall switch off, it sounds like you have the manual switch wired incorrectly. When the switch is off there should be no power getting to the magnetic door switch so the steps remain in whatever position you had them in prior to shutting off power to them.
You can test the switch using a circuit tester like # PTW2993. You should have power to the switch on one terminal and power on the other terminal only when the switch is engaged. If you need a replacement switch it is # LC379390. It sounds like you have constant power through that switch and that is the issue.
