The motor that died pumped hydraulic fluid into the gadgets (not a technical term) that move the extensions in and out. It includes a pump and a black box which contains the hydraulic fluid:
The unit is kept under the stairs to the inside of the motorhome, which makes it difficult to work on, with too many tight spaces:
Lee helped the mechanic with the installation. Looks like fun, doesn't it?? (No, not really. I washed and waxed part of the motorhome while all this was going on, which I preferred, believe it or not!)
Break time?

Well, that's as technical as I get. If you ask me any questions I will turn them over to Lee to answer...
