Entry steps
I have a 2006 Fiesta LX. It has the automatic entry steps. These steps go out when the door opens and in when the door closes. There is a switch that you can press that keeps the steps open when the door is closed and the engine is off.
Today, I picked up the RV from storage and the steps would not open. Or close. They are stuck, apparently, about 1/2" out. I charged the battery, lubed the hinges, and checked the connections. They all appear fine.
Under the steps, there is a motor with an orange light. The light comes on when the door opens and turns off when the door closes. But, despite all of this, the steps won't open or close. I think it may be a bad motor, but I am leaving tomorrow and don't have time to fix it.
So, is there a manual override that would let me put the steps in and out? If so, where is it? The owner's manual is sorely lacking in this area.
Thanks!
