Lippert Schwintek Slide-Out Motor | 236575 | IG-42 10mm | 300:1

Restore reliable slide-out operation to your Lippert Schwintek In-Wall RV slide-out system with the Lippert OEM Schwintek 300:1 IG-42 10mm Slide-Out Motor (Part #236575). This genuine LCI/Lippert OEM motor is the drive component that powers your Schwintek slide-out's extension and retraction — engineered for direct DIY replacement on the standard-torque Schwintek architecture. The right replacement when your existing motor has failed, become noisy, or stopped operating reliably.

⚠️ Genuine LCI/Lippert OEM — NOT a Chinese Copy

One thing worth being explicit about: this is a genuine Lippert motor with an LCI serial number — not a Chinese aftermarket copy. The RV parts market is unfortunately flooded with cheap replicas of OEM Schwintek slide-out motors that often fail prematurely, don't drive properly, or damage your slide-out hardware over time. The 236575 motors we sell are real LCI/Lippert units. If your previous "replacement" motor failed quickly, the OEM vs aftermarket distinction is likely a meaningful factor.

⚠️ Possible Minor Discoloration on Cylinder

These motors may show minor discoloration on part of the cylinder. This is purely cosmetic and does NOT affect:

• Motor performance or function
• Mechanical operation
• Service life
• Mounting fit

The mechanical and electrical components are unaffected — only visible cosmetic finish may show some wear. Since the motor is hidden inside the wall in typical Schwintek installations, cosmetic appearance is a non-issue for most buyers.

300:1 Gear Ratio — Standard Torque

The 236575 features a 300:1 gear ratio — the standard torque output for Schwintek In-Wall slide-out applications. This is the right motor for the majority of Schwintek slide-out installations on the road today, sized appropriately for typical slide-out weights and operational loads.

Need More Torque? See the 500:1 High Torque Sibling

If your slide-out is heavier or requires more torque than the standard 300:1 motor provides — for example, larger slide-outs, heavier furniture-loaded slides, or installations where binding has caused the standard motor to struggle — see the higher-torque variant:

• Lippert Schwintek In-Wall High Torque Motor — 500:1 (Part #287298) — same physical fitment but with a higher gear ratio for more torque output

Match the motor's torque rating to your slide-out's weight and operational requirements. If you're not sure which torque rating you need, verify against your original motor's part number — slide-out manufacturers specify the appropriate motor at design time, and replacements should match.

IG-42 / 10mm Shaft — Schwintek In-Wall Standard

The 236575 features:

• IG-42 motor designation — the standard Schwintek In-Wall motor architecture
• 10mm shaft diameter — direct fit on Schwintek In-Wall slide-out drive systems
• Exact-match component — drop-in fit on compatible Schwintek installations

For Lippert Schwintek In-Wall Slide-Out Systems

The 236575 is specifically designed for Lippert Schwintek In-Wall slide-out systems. Schwintek In-Wall is the slide-out architecture where the drive motors and rack-and-pinion mechanism are concealed inside the slide-out walls — distinct from other Lippert slide-out architectures (such as Full Wall slide-out controllers like the 368828, which serves a different system entirely).

Verify your slide-out architecture before ordering — Lippert produces multiple slide-out systems, and motors are not interchangeable across the different architectures.

Easy DIY Installation

The 236575 is engineered for straightforward DIY replacement:

• Exact-match drop-in replacement for OEM Schwintek motors
• Standard mounting — no architectural modifications needed
• Most DIY-comfortable RV owners can complete the swap with basic tools
• Direct plug-and-play electrical connection on standard Schwintek wiring

What This Motor Does

The drive motor is the powered component that operates Schwintek In-Wall slide-outs:

• Drives slide extension — opens the slide-out from the wall
• Drives slide retraction — pulls the slide back to the closed position
• Provides controlled motion via the integrated gear reduction
• Allows one-touch operation from the slide-out control switch

Common Failure Symptoms

Reasons to replace the Schwintek slide-out motor include:

• Slide won't extend or retract when the switch is activated
• Motor runs but slide doesn't move — internal gear failure
• Unusual grinding, squealing, or rumbling noises during operation
• Slow, labored, or strained motion during extension/retraction
• Motor seizes — completely stops working
• Intermittent operation — works sometimes, doesn't other times
• Motor overheats during operation
• Slide binds or sticks mid-cycle

Before assuming the motor has failed, rule out simpler issues — switch operation, wiring connections, control module function, battery voltage, fuses, or mechanical binding in the slide-out hardware. These can mimic motor failure symptoms. Our RV Slide-Out Moves Slowly or Stuck troubleshooting guide walks through the typical diagnostic path.

⚠️ Professional Installation Recommended for Complex Cases

While the 236575 is engineered as a DIY-friendly replacement, slide-out motor replacement involves working with the slide-out mechanism, 12V DC electrical wiring, and potentially the slide rack-and-pinion drive system. For first-time installations or unfamiliar slide-out configurations, a qualified RV service technician can ensure proper alignment, electrical termination, and operational verification. After installation, verify smooth extension/retraction across the full slide travel.

1-Year RV Surplus Warranty

The 236575 is backed by our 1-year warranty with The RV Surplus.
