How To Fix Stuck Power Running Boards!

In this video I go over an issue that I have time to time with my Amp Research power running boards and how I fix and maintain them. Power steps no matter what brand have issues. The issue I have here is very common for all. Maintenance is key on power steps to keep them working properly. As I say in the video your adding another mechanical part to your vehicle. Thanks for watching!

Thanks I do the exact same thing. Also be aware to clean after the rainy season. I tend to use an air compressor to clean out the pivot points before the silicone lube.

You might try Super Lube oil to see if it would last longer for you. I replaced my silicone garage door lube with Super Lube oil and it lasts MUCH longer.

Have you ever had a problem with the stairs? Have a mind of their own, and they go app-and-down like when you drive and down the road, it sounds like your suspensions fall out of the bottom of the truck, but it's the stairs going up-and-down on the road. Does that mean there's a bad sensor somewhere? How do I fix that? Do you know of anything like that

I had both running boards get stuck with grit 2 winters ago. I cleaned and lubed both and got the driver's side going. The passenger side was stuck down and I manually pushed it up. I've used compressed air, power washer, several lubricants, a pry-bar, etc. and I haven't been successful freeing it up. There is power to the motor. Did I break something by pushing the board up?

Ford should know better than to sell these in Ontario where we have snow and salted roads.
