ram power running board 2020

[country4life]

when I open my door it takes like 30seconds to deploy the running board is it ok to step onto the board as it’s not fully deployed say if I’m in a rush to get to work or something? Or is it hard on the motor ?

30sec?? May need to oil the hinge. I assume it doesn't like being stepped on while lowering.

The boards should deploy immediately. If you step on them while they're moving one of 3 things will happen...I've experienced all three on occasion when when I get out so fast that my foot is on them before the door is fully opened.
1. nothing, they continue to deploy
2. they stop at the point that you stepped on them and dont finish deploying
3. They immediately retract.

When the door is opened, that side deploys FULLY all the way down in 2 seconds. What do you mean 30 seconds?

Mine don't seem slow to me, but then again I'm not usually in a hurry to get into or out of my truck. 30 seconds would seem like an eternity though. Definitely something wrong there. I don't think it would be good to step on them while they're in motion.

Obviously it’s 2 seconds lol but it seems longer when yah gotta boogie it’s a new truck with 2000 miles the boards are fine I was just wondering if it’s ok to step onto the board while it’s not fully down

Hopefully it's ok to do so, I ride them down a bit when it's downpouring and I want to get in quickly so my interior doesn't get flooded.

Otherwise mine deploy quickly enough to not be a problem.

Definitely seems longer when it's pouring rain LOL
