Solution for RV with Kwikee Steps that Are Opening When Ignition is Turned On
Published 09/05/2019
Question:
Thank you for checking back with me. I have a Kwikee power gear step. New on RV in 2012. Has always worked. I tested the yellow wire and it has 12v when the ignition is turned on. When the door is closed and steps in the turning on of the ignition causes the steps to go out?

Most powered RV steps are wired up so that if you turn on the RV the steps will automatically retract. If yours is extending instead that would indicate that this circuit is wired backwards. Do you know what steps you have?
