Step will not stay out

[gussie01]

Wife and I take delivery of a Berkshire 390QS the step will not stay out when the switch is off, am I missing something?

If you have Lieppert steps, this might help you....

For steps to stay out with door closed, Lippert steps = switch off/Kwikee steps = switch on. Door switch, Lippert = normally closed/Kwikee = normally open.

You don't say if coach is running or parked if it's running it will retract when you close the door by design. If you are parked and switch is on step will retract when door is closed and extend when door is open. So if you want step to stay out all the time turn switch off when door is open and step is already out. If you are doing that the magnetic switch in the door could be bad.

The only other criteria i can think of is the DC power switch being selected off, thus nothing DC works. With DC power switch on, stairs power switch on, When the door is open and the ignition off, the steps will extend and stay out.

Could you provide more information? Like is the engine running? Or is the ignition on?

Get the dealership to check it and fix it before you sign the paperwork.

I just returned from the beast I had the key in my pocket and step is still going in. I flipped the switch to keep out step went in open the door step stayed in flipped the switch step came out. Looked for a fuse only fuse I found way I the fuse box beside the drivers window. Crawled under found no fuse.

I don't quite understand your posts, but reading the Kwikee manual it states for the steps to stay our, the switch must be in the ON position.

Lippert is the opposite. Step stays out with the switch OFF.

Have you read those manuals?

Are the steps just a little out or all the way out ??

All the way out
