When your Lippert Venture electric bed slide stops moving smoothly -- or stops altogether -- the motor is usually the first place to look. The 142141 is the OEM-spec replacement motor for compatible low-profile Venture bed slide systems, restoring full slide-out function without cutting corners on fit or gear ratio.
The Lippert Venture bed slide system is widely used across multiple RV brands and floorplans that incorporate an electric slide-out sleeping platform. Over time, the drive motor can wear, strip gears internally, or develop electrical faults from repeated cycling. The 142141 motor assembly replaces the failed unit with a component matched to the original 28:1 gear ratio and low-profile housing geometry of the Venture system.
A 28:1 gear ratio provides the mechanical advantage needed to move the bed platform smoothly under load without straining the motor windings. The low-profile design is critical -- standard-depth motors physically will not fit in the confined space beneath or beside the slide mechanism in most Venture installations. Using the correct part number ensures proper mounting, shaft engagement, and electrical compatibility.
Matched to the original Venture bed slide spec. Correct torque output for reliable platform movement under load.
Compact motor body fits within the tight clearances of the Venture bed slide cavity. Not interchangeable with standard-depth units.
Part number 142141 sourced directly from Lippert. No adaptation or modification required for compatible slide assemblies.
12V DC motor designed for the Venture system's existing switch and wiring harness. No controller upgrade needed on compatible units.
The 28:1 ratio is not interchangeable with other Lippert slide motors that may share a similar body style. A higher ratio moves slower with more torque; a lower ratio moves faster with less. Using the wrong ratio can cause the slide to move erratically, overtax the motor, or fail to hold position. Always match part number 142141 for Venture bed slide applications requiring the 28:1 spec.
The Venture bed slide is a dedicated electric slide-out system used to extend and retract a sleeping platform, typically found in travel trailers and fifth wheels with fold-out or slide-out bedroom arrangements. It operates independently of main room slide-outs and uses a smaller, purpose-built motor and track assembly. The 142141 motor is specific to this bed slide application -- it is not a general-purpose room slide motor.
This motor is designed for Lippert Venture electric bed slide systems that originally used the 142141 motor. Before ordering, locate the existing motor on your bed slide assembly and confirm the part number printed on the motor label or the slide system documentation. Lippert offers multiple motor variants across their slide product lines -- gear ratio, shaft configuration, and mounting pattern must all match. If your coach uses a room slide motor or a different Lippert bed slide variant, this unit may not be compatible.
