Hi everyone .... My steps aren't working ... there does not seem to be any power from the wiring going to the motor under the steps. Inside the motorhome there is a fuse panel and the breaker labeled "steps" does not appear to be tripped. I think it might be a blown fuse but I don't know where else to look for it. Any suggestions?

Check the plug from the control module to chassis, i had a couple pins that pushed loose. They looked fine, but when you plugged it together the pins pushed back and didn't make contact.

Guess what? Turns out I was wrong about there not being any power. I figured out how to test it and it had power. I reconnected all the wiring & lubricated all the points on the steps. Then all I had to do was "strike the motor with a mallet" and it worked! I guess it was stuck. I was in shock that the steps started working because they haven't worked for almost two years mostly because I didn't bother checking into it. "Thanks" to everyone for trying to help me .... Tony
It's funny how things work out ... I feel pretty dumb waiting so long to take a closer look at the steps not working ... a simple tap on the motor a couple of times with a mallet is all it took ... who knew ... thanks everyone for your suggestions.
