Tigerpa, Hi! Am new to forum and found your posting by searching for some help in repairing the electric step cover on my 2007 Monaco LaPalma.
Your picture of the frame will be a big help, but I have to ask ... How did you get the step off the frame? I have been looking UNDERNEATH mine with flashlight, contorting myself to positions to where IF I found a/the problem I couldn't get to it. Your help would be greatly appreciated by myself AND my wife who had to put up with my plywood cover makeshift cover for 2000 miles!
