Description

AMP Research PowerStep Smart Series | 2015-2022 Ford F-150

App-Driven Flexibility. Chiseled Design. 600lb Capacity.

Smart Tech for the World's Best-Selling Truck

The AMP Research PowerStep Smart Series is the most significant innovation in electric running boards since the original PowerStep. Engineered specifically for the 2015-2022 Ford F-150, this system moves the control from a hardwired dashboard switch to your smartphone.

Crafted and Made in the USA, the Smart Series offers a modern, chiseled profile that follows the body lines of your F-150. It’s not just a step—it’s an intelligent entryway that adapts to your needs with the tap of a screen.

The Problem & The Solution:

The Pain: Traditional power steps require drilling into your pristine F-150 dashboard to install a manual override switch. Plus, fixed boards ruin the sleek profile and ground clearance of your truck.
The Smart Solution: The Smart Series uses a Bluetooth-enabled app for iOS and Android to override steps or control lighting. No dash modifications required, and the steps vanish out of sight when you're driving.

F-150 Owner Feedback ★★★★★

"I've had standard PowerSteps on my last three trucks, but the Smart Series app control is a total game changer. I love that I didn't have to drill into my dash for an override switch. The steps drop low enough for my kids to get in easily, and they disappear completely when I'm driving. Best upgrade for any F-150."

- Mike T., Ford F-150 Lariat Owner

Frequently Asked Questions

+ Does this system require a subscription for the app?

No. The AMP Research Smart Series app is free to download and use. There are no monthly fees or subscription costs associated with controlling your steps via smartphone.

+ Can I still use my OBD-II port for other devices?

The system plugs into the OBD-II port to read door signals. If you need to use another device (like a tuner), you can use an OBD-II pass-through harness (sold separately) to maintain multiple connections.

+ Will the steps deploy if I don't have my phone with me?

Yes. The steps function automatically every time a door is opened or closed. The smartphone app is only required if you want to manually override the position or adjust the lighting.

+ How durable are the motors in winter conditions?

The motors are sealed and designed to withstand salt, mud, and freezing temperatures. The Smart Series app allows you to keep the steps retracted during heavy icing events to prevent ice buildup from interfering with movement.

+ What is the weight capacity per side?

The PowerStep Smart Series is rated for a 600 lb load capacity per side, ensuring stable entry for passengers of all sizes.

Prop 65

California Residents

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.

The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states. Detailed information regarding requirements for compliance to the California Prop. 65 is can be found at: www.P65Warning.ca.gov
