Powered retractable vehicle step assist systems and methods are provided. The steps systems are configured for installation (e.g., after market installation) and use with a vehicle. The system can include a stepping member movable between a retracted position and a deployed position with respect to the vehicle. The system can further include a vehicle interface. A controller of the step system can be configured to process information received from the vehicle interface and, based at least partly on the processing of the information, cause movement of the stepping member between the retracted position and the deployed position.

Automated retractable vehicle step

A remotely controlled retractable vehicle step system configured for use with a vehicle includes: a stepping member movable between a retracted position and a deployed position; a motor operably coupled to a support member and capable of effectuating movement of the stepping member from the retracted position to the deployed position; and a control system including a vehicle status interface configured to obtain data indicating a status of one or more vehicle features, a motor interface configured to control operation of the motor, and a wireless communication interface configured to communicate wirelessly with a remote electronic device, wherein the control system is configured to: receive, from the remote electronic device, a request to enter an override state; and initialize a countdown timer for automatically ending the override state.

Remotely controlled vehicle step and lighting systems

Dual light for a vehicle

Light for a vehicle

A flexible sheath is attached over the wire opening in a light fixture housing. The wire leads pass freely through the sheath so as to allow air to enter between the sheath and leads into the housing. Such passage of air flow to and from the fixture housing aids in the prevention of condensation within the interior of the housing.

Vented light fixture

A light fixture with a light is electrically controlled by a magnetic switch positioned about the juncture between a door or movable cap and the frame such that the light may be switched on when the door or cap is away from the frame and the light may be switched off when the door or cap is closed next to the frame.
