That (the light) is going to be a non Kwikee item- usually a magnetic reed switch with a magnet. The magnet may have fallen off, or the step is not retracting enough to close the switch.
I finally got under there again and sure enough, just like Chris said, there is a reed switch on the side of the unit. The wired part with the switch in it had fallen off in the past (silicone used for adhesive had failed) and someone just tucked the switch inside the wire loom where it wasn't visible. I had just overlooked the small actuating magnet portion which is still in place. Thanks Chris.
