Detailed Description

Use this Mopar running board motor to replace a failed actuator in the power running board system on Ram 1500 trucks.

What It Helps Fix

  • Running boards that no longer deploy or retract

  • Power step system faults tied to the motor assembly

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year, model, and position before ordering. Confirm whether your Ram 1500 uses the deployable running boards and side steps assembly, since fitment differs between 2019 left-side and 2020-2021 N/A applications. Inspect the surrounding electrical connections and mounting points during replacement to confirm the new motor operates correctly.
