Something is jammed in the position sensor, so it keeps running until its detected that its in the correct position.
I would either disconnect the power for it, or get it fixed. The motors are not designed for that much work.
You might get lucky, and power wash the running boards, from all sides, and see if its jammed with dirt or something.

On the running board, under the truck, you will see a 5 wire WeatherPack plug. Get the running boards in the up position, and unplug it.
Looks like you can also just replace the motor, and that could also solve your problem..
These motors are everywhere, aftermarket and new. It may be a fairly common problem?
Edit: It could also be the power running board control module (Another thing I just found out these have)

Its cool man.. Mistakes happen. Lucky its an easy fix when a mod comes on to click a few mouse buttons.
