Link to PicsI have a 2011 Newmar Bay Star Class A coach with Ford V-10. I’m having issues with my Lippert electric steps. I have talked to Lippert tech support so many times & after each call, I feel like I was talking to the McDonald’s drive thru dude! Here’s my issue: I have tested the 4-pin coach harness & RED is 12V+, Brown grounds with door position, Yellow has 12V+ when IGN is on, & White is 12V+ when step switch is ON. I have replaced my motor controller, LCI-164889, 3 times in the past year, & step motor, LCI-163669, twice. My steps still don’t work properly. I just noticed when I turn the step switch ON, I’m getting a clicking noise from my engine compartment. I’m positive that the clicking noise is coming from the Battery Disconnect Relay. My coach has 2 x 12V house batteries & 1 x 12V chassis battery. I have chased the wiring to the steps harness & I believe that the harness RED wire gets 12V from the hot side of this relay. Why would this relay be making a clicking sound every 5 seconds when the steps switch is in the ON position, & why aren’t my steps working? I have HOT wired the new step motor in both polarities, & it works! My chassis battery is brand new & my house batteries are 3yrs old. I’m working on it while plugged into 30A service. Here are a few pics. Anyone have a solution? I’m trying to figure out how to add a few pics to this post.
