We have a Free Motion Tt30 Incline Trainer making a loud noise that sounds like a bearing going bad, then the noise stops. Do you have any repair suggestions?

I have a Freemotion i5.3 Incline Trainer. When I run on it at 4+ MPH it makes loud bangs when my foot land on the platform. I usually walk on it at higher incline and just recently started running on it. The bangs are much louder at 0% incline than at higher inclines for the same speed. What might be the problem?

Either bad brakes on that side or a bad wheel bearing.



HOPE THAT HELPS

This could be one of two things. We will first start with a wheel bearing. When you are driving, does the growling noise get louder as you go faster. Some times is will sound like you have a helicopter flying beside you depending on how bad the bearing is. The second thing that could be causing the growling noise is your transmission. There are also bearings inside your transmission that could be causing the noise. If you have a cvt transmission, you have a 120,000 mile warranty and can have it repaired at no cost to you. You will just have to go to a nissan dealership.

please RUN the software calibration for easy diagnostic and fix it.
go to HOOD cover motor, and follow the steps, or ready your owner manual

It sounds like you may have a wheel bearing/ hub assembly starting to go bad...You can check this by jacking up the front end and checking for slight play in each wheel when you try to move tire in a side to side,and up and down motion basically But you just want to use a wiggle motion...you should be able to feel a bit of excessive play in the side which is going bad...One side will be tight with no play,and the other will have some play if the wheel bearing hub assembly is going bad...

The transmission is making the noise.
The bearings are going bad.
A transmission replacement will solve the problem.

It sounds like you need a bearing job. The bearings in the back half of the wash tub go bad. and the washer gets loud .It's an expensive repair. I hope this helps

for the check engine light:
-you can go to auto zone and have them hook it up to the computer for free!!!!!

for the squeaky cricket noise:
-could possibly be a wheel bearing starting to go bad, or possibly a wear sensor on the brakes....

that is only if it makes the noise when the vehicle is in motion.... if the sound is there while it is sitting still, then you could have a pulley bearing going bad... hope this helps.... please rate this...

Sounds like the motor is going bad. It will only get louder before it finally stops. There is a device that assists the agitation motion that may be bad or is going bad.
