Note: This step assembly includes everything you need to install and use the steps on your RV.
The included 4-way plug fits into the existing wiring harness on your RV. Most vehicles should having this wiring already set up. In the event that your RV is missing the wiring, a 4-way pigtail is included to help you hardwire the unit to your RV.
The Kwikee steps include several safety features in an effort to prevent injury to you or your passengers and damage to the RV steps. If an obstruction is detected while extending, the steps will halt and retract back into the stowed position. The steps will also retract when you turn on the vehicles ignition, even if the automatic retraction override has been activated, in case you forget to stow them before driving away.
Will Kwikee Electric Steps Work for You?
Electric steps are typically installed on RVs and some travel trailers. The electric steps from Kwikee install and fold up underneath the camper for simple storage. To ensure you choose the correct size for your application, there are a few measurements you will need to take.
The Kwikee electric steps attach to the underside of the camper chassis, directly beneath the doorway. To decide which size you'll need, locate the space available underneath your camper that lines up with the doorframe, and measure the width and depth. You will need a mounting space that is at least 25-1/4" wide and 10" deep.
If it turns out you have more or less space beneath your doorway, there are other step assemblies available with bracket sizes ranging from 24-3/4" wide to 37-1/4" wide. A full list of the available steps is below.
Outriggers - metal brackets that act as an extension (LC301704 - sold separately) - may be needed for installation depending on the model of your original stairs. These provide extra length if the old steps are longer or wider than the new.
Once you know where the mounting bracket will go and what size mounting bracket you need, that spot will be used as the "mounting point" to determine how many steps you will need.
How Many Steps Do You Need?
To decide on how many steps you'll need, measure from the mounting point to the ground. This is called the entry height. The entry height should roughly match the height of the steps when they're fully extended, plus 6" to 8" to account for the drop from the bottom step to the ground. This measurement will also tell you how many steps you need.
The chart below displays mounting bracket widths in the first column and entry height measurements in the second column. The third column shows the corresponding part numbers. Use the mounting bracket width and entry height measurements you took to determine which part number will fit your RV. Choose the bracket size that is closest to your measurements without going over.

Electric step assembly includes everything you need to automatically open and close the step with your RV door. Motor and control unit extend and retract step. Switch kit overrides step retraction. Amber light illuminates when step extends.About a year ago we had to replace our Kwikee Electric motorhome steps. Thanks to the people at etrailer we were able to get the correct steps and in a reasonable amount of time.
Thank you etrailer.
It was an easy installation. Closely resembles the original step. Works good. My only concern is durability: The original was ALL metal and lasted 30 years. This new one has a lot a plastic.
My experience regarding this purchase has been very good. We recently purchased a used RV and found that the previous owner had cannibalized the motor and control unit from the existing step; what remained was rusted and unusable. I removed old step, cleaned up the remaining rust and painted the area where the new step would go. When I received the complete replacement assembly I could tell immediately that it was well engineered and made with quality materials. Installation was straightforward, included everything required and I was provided with information on how to get help if I needed it.
I would definitely encourage anyone in need of quality parts for their RV to give etrailer a serious look. I will continue to be a customer.
good product and fast service. not my first order with etrailer and not my last
So glad we checked with etrailer.com. The motorhome driver's step arrived within a week of our order and the price was the best I found online. Also, the sales associate helped me place my order and get the correct one for my coach.
Excellent service! Hard to find these days, very attentive and professional. We finally got the step hooked up not very hard to do! Glad we were able to find a replacement. You people are awesome!
Works great but a little pricey
well built step replaced a 20 year old unit same brand and model
Becky was very helpful during research and ordering process.
Should have had the bolts for attaching the steps.
Had to replace my old ones after smacking a curb going through a driveway. These came fast and were a quick replacement. Thanks etrailer.
This was a replacement for the original Kailee electric step that seized up. Install was straight forward but the mounting hole pattern was slighty different than the original. Installed replacement works as well as original
This step is used in a very unconventional way.
This application may not be what you are looking for in promoting the product.
This is replacing the identical step on my 4Runner.My wife has mobility issues and can not raise her foot to the height of the factory running boards.
Installing your step allowed me to retain my 2016, 4Runner.
Received the step this afternoon and is installed and working well tonight.
Delivered on time and bolted right up and works excellently. Always had great experience when purchasing anything from Etrailer!
My old steps had been curbed twice and were beyond repair and eventually stopped working. I got to talk with Rob at e-trailer. He professionally listened to my questions and advised me on the correct set of Lippert Kwikee steps.
My order arrived one day earlier than promised. They were packed properly so there was not any damage during the shipping process. I did the installation myself as it didnt look to difficult. From start to finish it took about two hours to complete the installation and make electrical connections. It would have gone quicker but I had to “massage” the bolts that were slightly curb bent with a wood block and rubber mallet.
It was refreshing to deal with a company that has knowledgeable service reps and who seemed willing to make the ordering process as painless as possible!
E-trailer is my new “go-to” store in the future!
Thanks Rob…. Your the best!
I recieved a bare bone unit i know its not suppose to come with the controller but it is suppose to come with a motor! All it came with is the frame and switch kit
Every experience I've had with these down to earth people has been stellar. Shipping before you can hang the opine up and more knowledgeable of their product inventory than the manufacturers that make them.
Replacement step is like new
Great Step! Bolt pattern fit exactly with the one I was replacing so it took some no time to get everything bolted up. Electrical connection worked great and step operated as expected.
