Follow the steps, and fix it. God bless you Be aware that the resistance is often
the part that requires repair. Resistance is managed magnetically, so
often if the machine is working, but the resistance isn't setting
correctly or at all, check the bolts that secure the magnets. If they
are loose, the resistance will slip. If the bolts are fine, check the
magnets themselves by using a refrigerator magnet and see if it is
attracted or repelled by the your fridge magnet. If not, the magnets
have de-magnetized and need to be replaced.
The resistance in mine wasn't changing, but the batteries were low so I replaced the batteries and it then worked fine.
