AMP Research 86147-01A PowerStep Smart Series Electric Running Boards

The AMP Research PowerStep Smart Series (86147-01A) is the most advanced electric power-retractable running board in the AMP Research lineup, combining automatic door-triggered deployment with full smartphone app integration. These boards give truck owners precise, on-demand control directly from their iOS or Android device.

Integrating directly into your vehicle's electrical system, the PowerStep Smart Series automatically deploys the moment a door is opened and retracts three seconds after the door closes, keeping a low profile and preserving ground clearance while underway. The companion smartphone app allows manual override of both the running boards and the integrated LED light system — eliminating the need for a separate hardwired override switch.

Key Features:

• Smartphone App Control — Compatible iOS and Android app allows manual override to hold steps up or down, and toggle integrated or auxiliary LED lights on/off
• Automatic Deployment — Steps extend when any door opens and retract automatically 3 seconds after door closure
• 6-Inch Wide Step Surface — Full-length, oversized board surface accommodates any foot size and footwear type
• 600 lb Load Capacity — Heavy-duty alloy construction rated at twice the capacity of most competing running boards
• Anodized Cast-Aluminum Construction — Steps and hinges feature anodized cast aluminum with corrosion-resistant stainless steel hinge pins
• Military-Grade PTFE Coating — Both step surfaces are treated for long-term corrosion and wear resistance
• Integrated LED Courtesy Lights — Built-in lighting enhances visibility during entry and exit
• Auxiliary LED Port — Includes an auxiliary port to power and operate additional LED light accessories
• New Step Profile Design — Contoured to complement the chiseled styling of modern truck body lines
• Plug-N-Play Installation — Includes OEM-style connectors and all necessary hardware; no permanent modification required
• Made in the USA — Manufactured domestically to IATF 16949:2016 quality standards
