swift sundance 630l
Hi everyone!

I have a 2006 Swift Sundance 630L which has the above step fitted. About 12 months ago it started failing and required a couple of “flicks” of the switch to get it to go down or retract then all of a sudden stopped working. Initially I though it was the switch but after a Motorhome specialist AND an auto electrician testing it both concluded the motor has gone!

I did see a thread somewhere that somebody had suggested it was the same motor used for electric adjustable headlights and made by Bosch but can’t seem to find it 🤷‍♂️ and a quick look online would suggest the replacement cost elsewhere is £200+

Any advice or suggestions greatly received as only got 3 weeks until we are away for 8 days and desperately want to get it sorted.

Thanks for reading this post 👍

Thule electric steps are rubbish, fact, they always fail. Just use it manually, it’s no big deal to pull it out and push it back. Trust me. If it buzzes just disconnect the 12v feed.
