On the way home, about 2,000 miles, I need to put the small step ladder out so the wife could exit and enter. Resolved by replacing the motor. Quite easy and I followed the steps of a middle aged woman who video taped the one she did herself. I mean heck, if a middle aged woman can do that.....

It's been almost 6 years since that particular day and the steps have worked faultlessly ever since then. I thought about ordering a new motor for a spare for about 6 months and then it kinda fell off the radar.
