This is in no way a guarantee but......

In some motorhomes, you may find the power steps are hard wired directly off the house batteries. Look for any wires with an in-line fuse running off the positive post of the battery or batteries.

You likely have a model 21 SCS/Frigette (coach step) like my 2006 Sunseeker.

According to the manual the yellow wire from the 4-pin connector near the controller should have a 6 amp fuse or circuit protector to the fuse panel.

Also, from the positive post there are 2 wires with protection.

Wire 1 - looks like a red wire, rather hard to tell from the manual, goes to the 4-pin connector, location above, and this wire has a circuit protector although it may not be a replaceable fuse.
Wire 2 - the other wire from the positive post goes to the inside power switch and it is marked as having a 6 amp circuit protector, possibly a replaceable fuse. In my coach battery compartment all wires are red, and the manual does not call out the color of this wire but in my case it has to be red, likely yours is too.

Good luck. My controller and motor has gone out 2 or 3 times since I bought it.

If you want the manual I can email it to you as a pdf. It's in 2 parts, 1 even pages, 1 with the odd pages.

That way you can validate you have a model 21.

Private message me from your account on FR if interested and give me your email address.
