Precor C966i Treadmill (Used) - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
My Precor966i was in storage for about 6 months
It's most likely that you have some damaged wiring. Make sure that where the urights connect to the console and the base frame that there are no pinched wires. You would want to measure the motor voltage in AC, but that's definitely not the problem anyway. If the wiring is not pinched or broken then it could be that your motor controller needs to be replaced. This is not unheard of when a machine is left sitting after it's been moved.

Just moved my precor c966i treadmill (we
it should be a cable that looks like an oversized telephone cable. I can't really tell by the description of the problem if you just can't remember where it plugs into or if you've lost it altogether. There will be a circuit board in the base of the treadmill that will have something that looks like a phone jack port on it. That's where it will plug into. There should only be one port on the lower board that will accept that style of plug.

My precor 100I AMT elliptical keeps resetting when you slow down. Anybody know what's causing this?
Check RPM Feedback:
The most common cause for the timer to stop after 7 seconds on a Precor elliptical is NO RPM feedback.
Start by checking the connection of the speed sensor to the lower board. If necessary, reset the connection.
Also, inspect the magnet located on the user's right crank arm (versions 1 and 2) or the user's left crank arm (version 3). The magnet passes the speed sensor with each revolution of the crank arm.
Ensure that the magnet is installed correctly, with its south pole facing the speed sensor. You can verify the magnet polarity using another magnet or a compass.
Speed Sensor Spacing:
Confirm that the spacing between the speed sensor and the magnet is within the range of 1/8" to 1/4". Adjust if necessary.
Battery and Power:
If your elliptical has a battery, check its status. A low battery could cause issues.
Consider using the optional power adapter kit to ensure consistent power supply.
Error Codes and Clearing Logs:
Check for any error codes displayed on the console.
Clear the error codes and power down the unit.
Inspect cable connections to ensure they are fully seated.
Power on the unit and monitor the error code log for any reoccurrence.
Professional Assistance:
If the issue persists, consider reaching out to professional repair services or contacting Precor support for further assistance.

My precor efx556 does not detect pedaling, how can i fix it?
hello there, check if the lift control system is detected the lift is moving in the opposite direction of the issued lift command. This error would happen when the lift was already in motion (typically downward) when a lift command in the opposite direction (lift upward) was issued.
What causes a slow boot up on a Precor EFX 546?
A slow boot up on a Precor EFX 546 elliptical machine can be caused by several factors, including:
- Low battery voltage: If the battery voltage is low, the machine may take longer to boot up. This can be due to a weak or old battery, or a problem with the battery charger.
- Dirty or corroded contacts: Dirt, dust, or corrosion on the battery contacts or other electrical contacts can interfere with the machine's ability to start up quickly.
- Faulty console or display board: If the console or display board is malfunctioning, it may take longer for the machine to boot up or may not boot up at all.
- Loose or damaged cables or connections: Loose or damaged cables or connections can prevent the machine from starting up properly and may cause a slow boot up.
- Outdated software: If the software on the machine is outdated, it may take longer for the machine to boot up or it may not start up at all.
To troubleshoot a slow boot up on a Precor EFX 546, you can try the following steps:
- Check the battery voltage and replace the battery if necessary.
- Clean the contacts on the battery and other electrical components.
- Inspect the cables and connections for damage or looseness.
- Check for any error codes or messages on the console or display board and consult the user manual for troubleshooting steps.
- Check for any available software updates and install them if necessary.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, you may need to contact a professional technician for further assistance.
Precor 556i / AXGE....Problema with the resistance. Can anybody help me?
Hey Fabian, it's possible that the resistance motor or sensors on your wife's Precor 556i/AXGE may need to be recalibrated. Try powering off the machine, unplugging it for a minute, and then plugging it back in to see if that resets the calibration. If the problem persists, you can try recalibrating the machine manually. There should be instructions in the user manual or online. If that doesn't work, then contacting customer service or a certified technician may be necessary. I hope this helps!
Precor 9.45 reset safety switch message wont go away
If you have checked the safety switch on your Precor 9.45 treadmill and everything seems to be intact, and the "reset safety switch" message still won't go away, it's possible that the switch itself is faulty or the console is not receiving the signal from the switch.
You can try cleaning the switch and the area around it, and also check the wires that connect the switch to the console to make sure they are not damaged. If the switch or wires appear to be damaged, they may need to be replaced.
If cleaning and checking the switch and wires doesn't resolve the issue, it's recommended that you contact the manufacturer or a qualified repair technician to further diagnose and fix the problem. They may be able to provide additional troubleshooting steps or suggest other possible solutions.
Precor treadmill making squeaking noise when running fast
Two likely candidates: Belt or tread. Lubricating the tread would be the easiest starting point; but if you're running at 7 or more you've probably already thought of that.
If the cover isn't too difficult to remove, you can expose the drive belt and the squeaking volume change would be an indicator that the drive belt is the problem.
