Smitty Says… We Solve Problems! Fix Your Broken Electric RV Steps! 🪜⚡️🛠️
Big RVs mean big adventures, but they can also mean big problems—especially when your motorized entry steps get stuck or refuse to extend and retract! Smitty at Sky River RV is showing off an electric step overhaul to explain how our service team keeps your entryways safe and functional. When electric steps fail, it’s usually caused by stripped step motor gears, bad door jam switches, blown fuses, or rusty linkage assemblies. Driving down the highway with steps stuck out is dangerous, and jumping in and out of a tall motorhome without steps is a recipe for injury!
Common Electric Step Repairs & Solutions:
🛠️ Step Motor & Gear Replacement: We replace worn-out Kwikee or Lippert step motors so your steps extend and retract smoothly every time.
🛠️ Linkage & Gearbox Overhauls: Lubricating and replacing jammed arm linkages prevents motor burnout and jerky movements.
🛠️ Door Sensor & Wiring Diagnostics: Repairing faulty magnetic door jam switches, ground wires, and 12V power connections.
🛠️ Full Step Assembly Upgrades: Complete removal and fresh installation for rusted, bent, or broken step assemblies.
Don't risk getting stuck on your next trip or damaging your steps against a curb! Call Smitty and the service team at Sky River RV to get your electric steps repaired or replaced today!
