A direct OEM-matched replacement motor and driveshaft assembly for Lippert electric above floor slide-out systems. If your single-rail, dual-rail, or belt-slide room is moving slowly, grinding, or not responding, this is the assembly that restores full operation -- as long as your original motor label confirms an 18:1 gear ratio.
Lippert's above floor slide-out systems are found across hundreds of RV brands and floor plans. The motor and driveshaft assembly is the heart of the electric drive mechanism -- when it fails, your room stops. Part number 116626 replaces the original 18:1 ratio motor unit on compatible Lippert single-rail and dual-rail above floor systems, and also applies to certain belt-slide configurations where the original motor bears the matching ratio designation.
Ordering the correct motor starts with one step: read the label on your existing motor before you remove it. The gear ratio -- 18:1 in this case -- must match. Installing a motor with a different ratio (such as a 25:1 or 10:1) in a system calibrated for 18:1 will result in incorrect slide travel speed and potential damage to the room seals or slideout mechanism. Do not rely on visual similarity alone.
Matches the original motor spec on compatible Lippert above floor slide systems. Confirm ratio on existing motor label before ordering.
Compatible with Lippert electric single-rail and dual-rail above floor slide-out configurations when gear ratio is confirmed.
Also applicable to Lippert belt-slide above floor systems -- verify with the original motor label that ratio reads 18:1.
Genuine Lippert part. Designed as a direct replacement for the original assembly to preserve proper slide travel speed and control module compatibility.
The motor converts 12V DC power from your coach into rotational force. The integrated driveshaft transmits that rotation to the slide-out rack or belt drive, extending and retracting the room. Replacing the motor and driveshaft as a matched assembly ensures proper torque delivery and eliminates the risk of mismatched components causing uneven room travel.
Do not substitute a different ratio motor even if the physical dimensions appear similar. The Lippert control system calibrates slide travel based on motor speed. An incorrect ratio results in the room over-traveling or under-traveling its stops, which can tear slide seals, damage the wiper seal, or trigger false fault codes on the control module.
