Steps quit on me on my trip west. Lippert "Coach Step" model, two stepper. Examined it in my shop and found the little gear motor that positions the steps to be shot. Got to thinking about installing a new one myself and can picture the output gear of the little gear motor having to be installed in exactly the right position on the gear plate that is attached to the steps. Is a bit of a timing problem it appears.
Anybody ever attempt this job themselves, who might give me a pointer on it. I would think the steps have to be in the all-the-way-out position, but even in this position, I could easily install the gear motor out of position a tooth or two or three. May have to take it to Forest River shop, huh...heck, Lippert may not even sell me one directly anyway, haven't checked.
