A few months ago, me and my wife bought a new 2007 Lincoln Navigator L for $63k. Nice SUV. But, I noticed this morning the power running boards wouldn't go down. It must be the motor. Help Please!

It is probably NOT the motor. More than likely you accidentally disabled the feature.
Your owners manual tells you how to re-enable the power deploying running boards .
I'll paste a copy of the directions for you :
***********copy***********
Enable/disable:
To enable/disable the power running board feature, refer to the Message
center in this chapter.
• When this feature is disabled
the stowed position regardless of the position of the doors.
• When this feature is enabled
back to the correct positions based off of the door positions.
(Message Center )
Setup menu
Press this control for the following
displays:
• Reset to English (if in another
language)
• System Check
• Oil Life
• Units (English/Metric)
• Autolamp Delay (if equipped)
• Easy/Entry Exit
• Air Suspension (if equipped)
• Autolock (if equipped)
• Power Liftgate (if equipped)
• Power Deployable Running Boards (if equipped)
• Compass Zone (if equipped)
• Compass Calibration (if equipped)
• Language
Power Deployable Running Boards (if equipped)
This feature automatically deploys the side running boards for easy
entry/exit from the vehicle or for cleaning.
1. To disable/enable the power
running board feature with the
vehicle in P (Park), select this
function from the SETUP control for
the current display mode.
2. Press the RESET control to select the running boards setting as
follows:
• AUTO: the running boards will automatically deploy when a door is
opened and automatically retract when the door is closed,
• OUT: the running boards will remain deployed regardless of the doors
being open/closed. This setting can be used when washing the vehicle, or
accessing the roof rack. The running boards will stow and enter AUTO
mode when the vehicle speed exceeds 5 mph ( kph),
• OFF: the running boards will remain IN regardless of the doors being
open/closed.

For future reference, I'll give you the link to download your entire owners manual, you can save it to your computer:

I THINK i'm right on this (I hope you'll let me know!) but if I'm not, your vehicle is covered by a bumper to bumper warranty & it will be no problem to repair !
I hope this helps.

if it gets hot when it does warm up its probably the thermostat. If you care to check a few things you could go under the hood and check how warm the radiator hoses are and the heater hoses you could find where its not circulating good at to pin point the problem. Also check your coolant level low coolant will stop you from getting heat and depending on your driving it might be that once you are driving it starts to circulate where when at idle or slow driving its not circulating enough.

trust me, ethol is always right. it would be kind of strange for the running boards to stop working when they are a pretty simple piece of machinery. my dad's 03 navigator's running boards never stopped working.

If resetting the feature doesn't work it's a blown fuse. Warranty work, take 'er in. Good luck.
