Automatic Step or Steps,



I could not get my steps to retract. No it was NOT the door switch. It was a rusty poor ground. The door light will tell you. I changed the brain. No go. Follow your instinct. Bad ground is usually the electrical anomaly on older rigs.



When I unplugged the main four-prong power cord on my Kwikee Steps the door light wavered from poorly lit to finally going out shortly after the reconnection. Seems to me like an internal testby the step brain



If your steps are not working to return, unplug the main four prong power cord. Plug in the unit’s four prong plug and watch the door light under the step. A poorly lit light indicated for me the ground was bad.



I do not know it this is always the case. It was the answer in my case.



Hope this helps anyone having Kwikee Step issues.
 
Nearly all, if not exactly all, of the electrical issues I had on my previous rig stemmed from poor ground issues.
