Re: Kwikee Step won't Retract
Mine is a 1999 Allegro Bay with the Kwikee Steps (I think series 32)...it's a double step. I was having similar problems but I could help mine in. Finally two days ago it quit altogether. A little hum, a click and nothing. I read on another site that the left front window lift motor from a '86-'95 Ford Taurus would work. I went to my local AutoZone and they had one on the shelf for $42.99. I took my old motor/gear off the steps, swapped out the large gear from the old one to the new one, bolted it back in, cut and reconnected the wiring (same color wiring on both the old and new) and it came back to life. It fully retracts (which it hadn't done since I bought it) and fully extends. I don't remember the Autozone part number but it came with a Dorman label and part number 742-277. Hope that helps someone!623Views0likes0CommentsRe: KWIKEE STEP MOTOR REPLACEMENT SERIES 32
I know this is an old thread but my motor died and I went to AutoZone and bought a generic $42 Ford Taurus drivers window motor and related gearing. It worked perfect. It wasn't a Dorman it was just the cheap one they had on the shelf. All I did was pull the big gear off the old one and put it on the new one. No indexing just spiced the wires together ...even the wire colors were the same.1.3KViews0likes0Comments
