My kwikee electric steps won't stay in the out position, even when the switch is turned off. My father in law replaced the switch and it still won't work properly. I have to crawl underneath and disconnect the wire to the step motor when I stop for any length of time. Any suggestions?

Some things to check: Is the ignition key in the switch with any position but OFF? The step should close if the the door sensing magnet is working properly. What switch was replaced - the door closed override switch? You may have a defective ignition NOT OFF relay. JM2¢...

Mike, no mention of the year of your coach; and if you have the Kwikee owners manual to help with troubleshooting?
As , teddyu, says if the Kwikee control module thinks the ignition is on it will close the door.
Have you cleaned the ground wires ?

I had to find a spot where I could run a new ground, not as easy as it sounds.
You can test it first by running a test ground lead to the switch - if the step stays out then you know what you need to do.
