Dear Sir:
Hello I hope everything is fine.
I will give some Tips:
Description Errors 00 through Error 04 check upper PCA memory locations, RAM memory locations and EEPROM checksum during the power up test sequence. If a fault is found during the power up test sequence, the appropriate error code will be displayed. Possible Causes 1. These errors messages almost always indicate an upper PCA problem when they are consistently displayed. Failures causing these error messages to be displayed are rare. Possible Remedies 1. If the error message is consistently displayed when the unit is powered up, the upper PCA should be replaced. It is possible to see one of these messages displayed intermittently due to external causes. If the units A.C. input significantly dips during the power up test sequence the test could fail resulting in one of these messages being displayed. Treadmills operating on non-dedicated A.C. circuits may see these messages displayed on an intermittent basis.
In other words, you need recalibration in your equipment, I recomend after you make a test for a RAM MEMORY.so contact your service call. I recomend Strong, INSTALL regulator Voltage is cheap about us$15,00 Radio Shak or another Electronic Place.
Thank you in advance , sincerely. Blessing. If you need additional Help, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Static Shock Problems:

Many people face a conundrum when using a treadmill. The problem is that a treadmill has you walk or run in a motion that causes you to build up an electrical charge on your body while you are exercising.
The problem if you are swinging your arms, you are totally isolated from any common ground so the charge just builds and builds and many discharges have been measured above 30,000 volts.

You may say, how in a frost-covered hell can I build up 30,000 volts on my body without killing myself? Good question and it has a good
answer...there is very little amperage. It will pop you good when you do ground and sting but it won't hurt you.
The problem is that it can damage the treadmill's electronics if it is not properly designed and we still see poor designs in this respect

If you don't like getting popped or if your treadmill is shutting down or going crazy, there is a fix. You can ground yourself to keep the electricity from building up on your body.

We now have wrist grounding straps that can be reused and attach to the frame of the treadmill without causing any markings and do not require any permanent modification to your treadmill. You can find them in any online catalog by electronic sales by searching for Grounding Strap.

Thank in advance, sincerely. God bless you.
