When your electric through-frame slide-out stops responding or moves sluggishly, a failed actuator motor is often the culprit. This is the direct OEM-replacement motor for Lippert Tucson and Venture slide-out actuator assemblies -- Lippert part number 132682, supplied by NBK Parts (part 20579). It restores reliable 12V DC operation to 2x2 and 2.5x2.5 tube through-frame slide-out systems on Heartland, Jayco, Keystone, Winnebago, and other major RV brands.
The Lippert Tucson and Venture slide-out systems are among the most widely used through-frame electric actuator designs in the RV industry. The actuator motor drives the lead-screw mechanism that extends and retracts your slide room, and over time -- especially in rigs used in dusty, cold, or high-humidity environments -- the motor windings or brushes can wear out before the rest of the actuator assembly shows any signs of failure.
Replacing just the motor is a cost-effective repair versus swapping the entire actuator. This unit bolts directly onto compatible 24-inch and 40-inch Tucson/Venture actuator bodies, restoring full function without the need for any actuator-body modifications or re-calibration of a new system.
Engineered as a drop-in replacement for Lippert Tucson and Venture actuators on 2x2 and 2.5x2.5 through-frame slide-out systems. No drilling, grinding, or adapters required.
The 18:1 reduction provides the torque needed to move heavy slide rooms reliably. Matches the factory gear ratio so slide travel speed and force are unchanged after the swap.
Cross-referenced against Heartland 14665, Jayco 0711101, Keystone 118012, and Winnebago 20247510000, covering a large portion of the RV market that uses this actuator platform.
Weighs approximately 5 lbs. Draws 30 amps at 12V DC -- well within the capacity of a standard RV slide-out circuit and compatible with most factory slide-out controllers.
This motor is compatible with Lippert Tucson and Venture through-frame actuators in the following tube sizes:
If you are unsure which actuator length you have, measure from the motor-mount end cap to the opposite end of the actuator body (not the rod). Most residential-width slide rooms use the 40-inch body; smaller slides or tip-out rooms sometimes use the 24-inch body.
Motor replacement on a Tucson/Venture actuator is a manageable DIY job for anyone comfortable with basic hand tools and 12V wiring:
The Tucson/Venture through-frame slide-out system was factory-installed across a wide range of fifth-wheels, travel trailers, and toy haulers built by:
Always verify your actuator's existing part number or the label on your current motor before ordering to confirm this is the correct gear ratio for your system.
Do not attempt to troubleshoot the Motor without assuring a full 12V DC charge
Step 3 - If NO, Inspect all connections between battery and switch.
Inspect 30A Auto-reset Circuit Breaker (See Fig. 10 for location).
Recheck as above in Step 1.
Since there are no field serviceable parts in the motor, electrical troubleshooting and service is limited to replacing only those components as previously outlined.
Thorough inspection of wiring and connections is the only other electrical service that can be performed.
