Recently had failure of my Kwikee steps. Would not extend or retract. Tech diagnosed problem as the control box. He also advised replacing the motor at the same time. Said if motor seized it would burn out new controller. Went to Amazon and got both for about $175.00 with 2 day shipping. replaced both and worked great.
