At 0:26 he explains a reset process but upon searching the internet I found a more in-depth description as follows; To activate and unlock the articulating running boards for normal operation, perform the following procedures: Open all front and rear doors. Set the parking brake. Find the running board disable switch located on the center console below the HVAC climate control system. Turn the ignition switch to the RUN position, with the engine off, and toggle the disable switch three times within 20 seconds to activate the power running boards. Close all doors. Open the left front or left rear door and the running board on the left side should articulate out. Close the left front or left rear door and the running board should articulate in. Open right front or right rear door and the running board on the right should articulate out. Close the right front or right rear door and the running board should articulate in. The articulating running boards will now operate when opening either the front or rear doors on that side of the vehicle. A power retract operation of the running boards will occur with the closing of both doors on that side of the vehicle.

Do this all without turning it out of the run position?

Do you know how to fix the wedge of the motor of the running board If you have a video about this I appreciate you favour

Can’t take the motor off the bracket, even though all the bolts are out. Could it be seized up?

Did you add those zerk points to your bracket or is that factory?

So what if they just sold me the motor at the dealership without the hinge? Having a hard time.

Great video but title should state you are changing the motor and pivot assembly- not the motor

Nice job. Would you say you can do this without removing the running boards from the vehicle?

That was my question, did you try to do it without removing them?

I want to put some anti-seize on those bolts and I would’ve cleaned out all that dirt behind the bracket when you put it back on but that’s just me
