Steps won't go out

Hi folks,

Wondering if anyone can help.

My RV is equipped with electronic steps which are supposed to come out when the door is opened.

Recently they stopped coming out.

I am sure that the mechanism is still operational as they occasionally still come out but then go back in.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  • First thing I would do is do a good lube job of the moving parts.
  • I think to get assistance from the gurus here you will need to supply more information. What year and brand/model of your RV. Step manufacturer if determined. You also might try to search for threads where this problem has been discussed quite often.

    My steps refuse to operate if the rig has been in storage for more than a month. After the battery gets topped off from running for a while the steps operate normally until it goes into storage again. Funny.
