How To Lubricate Treadmill
Replace the whole console would be the correct route. The fan stopping constitutes overheating and when things overheat they die and fast.
So yes a new console would be the right direction if its within your budget to fix. these treadmills are expensive new! So you might be into a $200 repair bill easy!

The motor controller weakens over time because of the excessive amperage draw of the motor do to lack of lubrication (which wears the walk belt and walking deck).
Take an amperage reading of the motor it should be 2-3 amps with no one on it, with someone walking on it it should be around 6-12 amps. I would bet yours is elevated above 6-12 amps.The controller is dropping output because of the friction problem.
The first thing to try after testing the amperage is to lubricate the walking platform. Then retest and see if the amperage comes down and it doesn't shut off.
If it does then the next step would be to replace the walking deck. If the amperage still is up you may need to replace the walk belt second and finally if after replacing the deck and belt, if the unit is still shutting down replace the motor controller.
ProForm Treadmills have a reset procedure for the incline function. With the key inserted in the console, activate the incline; while the incline is changing, remove the key. Wait 30 seconds, then replace the key. The incline should to maximum, then to minimum, resetting its limits. It worked for mine just 10 minutes ago; the procedure is in the manual if you have it. Good luck!

Here are some possible causes and solutions:
Overheating: If the motor or electronics of the treadmill get too hot, the machine may shut down to prevent damage. Make sure that the treadmill is placed in a well-ventilated area and that the air filters are clean. You can also try lubricating the walking belt to reduce friction.
Faulty speed sensor: If the speed sensor is malfunctioning, it may cause the treadmill to shut down. You can try cleaning the speed sensor with a soft cloth and see if that helps .
Worn walking belt: If the walking belt is worn or damaged, it may cause the treadmill to shut down. You can try replacing the walking belt and see if that helps.
Electrical issues: If there are any electrical issues with the treadmill, it may cause the machine to shut down. You can try resetting the circuit breaker or unplugging the treadmill for a few minutes and then plugging it back in.
If none of these solutions work, it may be best to contact Proform customer service.
If you've already replaced the lift motor on your Proform 400s Treadmill and the incline still won't work properly, there may be other underlying issues that need to be addressed. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:
Check the wiring: Ensure that all the wiring connections related to the incline mechanism are secure and properly connected. Loose or damaged wiring can cause issues with the incline functionality.
Inspect the incline motor and gears: Examine the incline motor and gears for any signs of damage, misalignment, or obstruction. Ensure that the gears are engaging properly and that there are no obstructions preventing the incline from moving up and down smoothly.
Reset the treadmill: Perform a full system reset on your treadmill. This can often resolve minor software glitches or issues that may be affecting the incline function. Consult your treadmill's user manual for instructions on how to perform a reset.
Contact customer support: If you have followed the above steps and the issue persists, it is recommended to reach out to the customer support of Proform or the retailer from whom you purchased the treadmill. They should be able to provide further troubleshooting guidance or arrange for professional repair assistance if needed.
Remember to exercise caution when working with electrical components or performing any repairs on your treadmill. If you are unsure or uncomfortable with the process, it is advisable to seek assistance from a qualified technician or the manufacturer's customer support to ensure proper diagnosis and resolution of the issue.
Check if the safety key is securely inserted and engaged.
Ensure that the belt is centered and not too tight or too loose.
Verify that the motor controller is not over-heating, if it is, allow it to cool down.
Check the drive belt for wear and damage, if necessary, tighten or replace the belt.
Ensure the motor is functioning properly by checking the wiring and connections.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, the motor or the control board may need to be replaced and it is recommended to call a professional repair service.
There are a few potential remedies for a humming motor on a Proform 395e elliptical:
Tighten any loose parts: If the humming noise is coming from the motor, it could be caused by loose parts that are vibrating against each other. Try tightening any screws or bolts that may be causing the noise.
Check the belt: The belt that connects the motor to the elliptical's flywheel may be loose or damaged, which can cause a humming noise. Tighten the belt or replace it if it is damaged.
Check the flywheel: If the flywheel is damaged or out of balance, it can cause the motor to vibrate and make a humming noise. Check the flywheel for damage and replace it if necessary.
Check the motor bearings: If the motor bearings are worn or damaged, they can cause the motor to vibrate and make a humming noise. Check the motor bearings and replace them if necessary.
If you are unable to identify the source of the humming noise or fix it yourself, it is recommended that you contact Proform customer service or a qualified technician for assistance.
