Did some research and tried a couple of things suggested, magnet etc. I saw some one mentioned you could retract them manually? Can anyone be more specific how to do this so I can get to my destination to have it repaired. I am in an RV park in Ft Stockton TX headed east. Thanks
Should be a clevis on the arm of the motor gear box, with a bolt affair and cotter pin. Good that the step is open for getting to it from down under and maybe with out having to drop the motor/gearbox ass'y plate.
Once done, you'll have to tie it back so it won't be going in and out on it's own.
I have mine apart now and had to do so with the step (single version) in the closed position. Motor is burnt up and a new one will be here, by Friday.
Here's a tip for the motor and if ever needed. Buy a power window motor instead and what it actually is and and save some money with the one I ordered costing about $31. Add in a couple of American flags and get free shipping. Just ordered it yesterday, too.
All this with a Kwikee product and others may vary with not being sure of what you have there.
All else fails, drive it with it out and watch where you're going with it.
