The AMP Research PowerStep Smart Series (86254-01A) is a complete pair of electric retractable running boards for the 2019-2021 Silverado/Sierra 1500 and 2020-2023 Silverado/Sierra 2500HD/3500HD. Each board deploys the instant a door opens and retracts flush under the rocker a few seconds after the doors close.

Why owners choose it

  • Auto-deploys the instant a door opens, then retracts flush a few seconds after the doors close.
  • App control: the Smart Series smartphone app (iOS and Android) lets you override the steps up or down and switch the lights from your phone.
  • Obstacle detection — the control module monitors motor current draw and halts the step if it meets an obstacle or jam.
  • Integrated LED step lights plus an auxiliary LED port you can power and switch from the app.
  • Die-cast aluminum boards with a black textured finish, rated to support 600 lb per side.
  • Vehicle-specific plug-in OBD-II wiring harness installs with no wire cutting or splicing.

What's included

Sold as a complete kit for both sides of the truck. Includes the driver- and passenger-side PowerStep Smart Series assemblies with motors, a vehicle-specific plug-in OBD-II wiring harness and Smart Series control module, mounting brackets and hardware, integrated LED step lights, and an installation guide. Some cab configurations require trimming the board to length; professional installation is recommended.

Fitment

Fits 2019-2021 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 and 2020-2023 Silverado and Sierra 2500HD and 3500HD in Double Cab and Crew Cab. On 2022 the 1500 fits the Limited/LTD (previous body) only, not the new-body 2022. Double Cab boards trim to length.

Which PowerStep fits your truck

This 86254-01A is the app-controlled Smart Series board for these GM trucks. The heavy-duty Xtreme version is the 78254-01A. Confirm whether your 2022 1500 is the Limited/LTD (previous body) or the new body before ordering.

FAQ

Which 2022 Silverado does the 86254-01A fit?

On 2022 the 1500 fits the Limited/LTD (previous body) only, not the new-body 2022 1500. It also fits the 2020-2023 2500HD/3500HD.

Can I control the steps from my phone?

Yes. The Smart Series smartphone app (iOS and Android) overrides the steps up or down and controls the LED lighting, and the module's obstacle detection stops the step if it meets resistance.

Is this PowerStep sold as a pair?

Yes. This part number includes both the driver- and passenger-side assemblies as a complete two-side kit.

What warranty does AMP Research provide?

AMP backs the PowerStep with a 5-year/60,000-mile limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
