Series 35 step and service-part photographs
The complete step and the parts below have separate manufacturer numbers. Use the part number and your existing step's linkage style together when comparing replacements.
Motor, controller and gearbox generations
Lippert's service manual separates pre-2006 drives, 2006–2018 IMGL drives and IMGL-II components introduced in 2019. A motor and controller from different generations must not be mixed. For an older IMGL system, Lippert specifies updating the motor and controller together when either fails.

Replacing the step frame
