FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why is there unwanted noise coming
from my power running boards?
The power running board mechanism
could trap debris such as mud, dirt,
snow, ice and salt. If this happens, set
the running boards to the deployed
position. Then, wash the system, in
particular the front and rear hinge
arms, with a high-pressure car wash
wand.
