kwikee step not going up
#5

ok, i sat here stewing about why the steps would retract when the step switch was on.

it was dark so i went out with my phones flashlight.

the steps were retracting like the ignition was one (which as you know overides the switch and makes the steps go up)

i had left the key slightly rotated so the steps thought the engine was on. turned it off, took the key out and everything works perfectly now.

it was fun to test and troubleshoot something on the newell. i have not done much of that in a long time.

since my coach was a race coach, the door opened and closed about a million times. that is why i had to rebuild the bode air door cylinder previously. the switch just wore out.

now to find a suitable sub.

it is a Hartmann-Codier 164-574 now one of you research experts find me a suitable substitute.

i might take it all apart and measure it too.

since the once is bad, it is likely it will fail the other set of contacts, so i do need to find one. i can change it out in 30 minutes now.
