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 31-1/2" wide and 11-3/8" 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.Box came damaged and opened. The step arm is bent as well on one side. Hole in the bottom of the box where the bent portion was sticking out.
Sad :(
As usual etrailer exceeded my expectations. The step arrived much sooner than expected. Very sturdy step and an exact replacement for our damaged one so it should go right in.
This step is a big upgrade from the original steps. Much better mechanism and smoother operating than the original.
Everything is exactly what it should be thank you for your excellent service I got the package the following day which is even earlier than you originally mentioned great thank you
Product fitted our needs and was here q uick.
I hit a curb and damaged the RV step, I called etrailer and gave Pat my info and she put me on hold while she checked with Manufature for correct part #. She emailed me with timely progress of my order. Upon receiving my order I removed the damaged one and installed the replacement. It was correct replacement and only took I hour to complete and is working great. Thank you
Have had this step installed for a year now. Install went as predicted. A bit of a pain getting it aligned and as I recall, needing to drill a couple of new holes. (This install replaced the existing non-stock step on a class A MH) I used the new magnetic contact switch which was a vast improvement from the button that was in the jamb before. Step has worked flawlessly since, it's quiet, always opens (switch is very consistent) and tucks up under the face of the MH perfect. Love this purchase, install and operation.
Looks right have not installed yet. Received it early so thank you
I ordered this step to replace a 21 year old step on our 2001 Monaco Windsor as I was having problems with it. I received the replacement on time and installed it in 30 minutes, It was a direct plug and play. Also the same quality as the old one. hopefully get another 20 years from it. All my experiences in the past with E-trailer has been positive.
I have ordered dozens of items from Etrailer. They ALWAYS get it right. In spite of disappearing vendors, changes in versions, or totally new replacements; they are perfect in deciphering the correct part. Kudos to them!!!
The new step came the day before it was expected! It bolted up to the existing support structure and plugged in to the existing wiring...with the exception of the door (magnetic) switch. That was easy to replace as the existing wires had a connection behind the door frame. Two new crimps for that, then bolt up the new step and plug and play! Probably 2 hrs start to finish. But I was being careful.
Overall looked good after delivery. Used jack to help put up against frame to bolt on. The plug connection was short so was glad included with shipment was an extra extension wire with plug. Had to also replace magnet switch at door since without doing so the step closed when the RV door was opened and extended when the RV door was closed just the opposite ofd what it needed to be. The original magnet switch was not suited for this new unit. Called the manufacturer and they told me the included magnetic switch needed to be replaced for proper operation. Sure enough once I put the new magnetic switch in everything works perfect.
Works perfectly just make sure you replace the door switch on older model or it will work backwards
The Kwikee step was a direct replacement for a damaged step and was a perfect fit. ETRAILER kept me informed of delays and offered suitable replacements. I chose to wait on my original order and still received it in a very timely manner. I have been very pleased all products I have purchased from ETRAILER.
Love the step, it bolted and wired right up. Had it operating in less than an hour.
Replacement for a step that got in the way of a big rock. Once supports got bent back in shape, installation was straightforward. Electrical was a little different than factory setup, but step has additional function now. Works great.
The step was exactly what I needed. And the installation was easy. The only thing I would include would be both limit switched.
installed on 1999 Monaco Dynasty did have to drill mounting holes just a little to lineup.Works great, No problems at all. Finish seems to be holding up well. would highly recommend.
Excellent product recommendation by etrailer. Excellent installation.
Easy to install and has worked great ever since.
