Update on my step.
I am expecting the new motor to arrive today from LCI. With rain forcasted for wednesday and disneyland tomorrow i thought id remove the motor and get the step ready hoping to install tonight if ups get here early.
Pulled the motor and decided to look into the gear box. When replacing the original motor i felt the gear in the gear box but never looked at it. The teeth i could feel felt fine
This time i looked inside at the gear and moved the arm back and forth. Sure enough i found two broken teeth at the end of the gear
LCI customer service assured me the gear never breaks. Well never say never. LCI sent me a new gear box with the first motor they sent me. Four nuts holds the gear box to the step. Quick and easy install
All is working great and ups just delievered another motor. So now i have an extra controller and two motors
