RUN THE SOFTWARE CALIBRATION. God bless you

The Steps for Newer Style Console Calibration

  1. Locate the calibration area on the rear or underside of the console (a hole, near the console's center, that goes through to the electronics board. (This hole should not have a screw in it.)

  2. Insert a pencil (eraser end), into the hole and feel around for the cal button (will click when pressed).

  3. Press the button 2 times (with the pencil eraser). The first click should show CL11 in the console, the second click should show CL21.

  4. If the process was done correctly, and CL21 appears in the console, you are in "calibration mode." The next few steps consists of pressing buttons on the console and observing settings. This will not require any other tools.

  5. Press ENTER. CL22 should display in the TIME window and (??) in the SPEED window.

  6. Press ENTER. CL23 should display in the TIME window and (??) in the SPEED window.

  7. Press ENTER. CL24 should display in the TIME window and (??) in the SPEED window.

  8. Press ENTER. CL25 should display in the TIME window and (??) in the SPEED window.

  9. Press ENTER. CL26 should display in the TIME window. You should then see the letter "E."

  10. Press ENTER. You should see "SS" or "55" in the console.

  11. Push the STOP/START button. For safety, at this point, you should step off, or be off, the treadmill.

  12. Push the ENTER button. The walking belt should start to move, accelerate to maximum speed, then stop on its own.

  13. When the belt stops, the incline should self test by raising to its highest incline position, then lowering back down to its lowest position.

  14. Once the incline test is complete, push the POWER button 2 times. The unit should shut off and the console should go completely blank. If this happens, the treadmill is done calibrating and is ready for use.

  15. If the letter "F" appears in the SPEED or INCLINE window when the power button is pressed 2 times, the treadmill is indicating a failure somewhere either in the SPEED or INCLINE (depending on the window the "F" appeared in). Troubleshooting the failure would be the next step.

Unplug your unit take the motor shroud off and you will see a circuit board (Motor Control Board) their should be L E D s on the board. Now plug your unit in and you will see these light up if you have a second pair of hands that can help you have them press you incline controls.

You should see one of these L E D s light up followed with a click of a relay this activate the incline motor some of these boards will have a 3 amp fuse to protect the board from damage , if you see a open fuse replace it with the same exact fuse. If it blows again either you have a shorted armature winding or the worm screw is frozen. I would call Smooth Fitness, depending wiether this was made by either Sports Art Fitness or Keys Finess they will direct you to theproper parties.

SOURCE: treadmill stuck on highest incline....and motor

If the incline is stuck, it could be a problem as simple as the gearbox on the motor being jammed. Unplug the treadmill remove the motor shroud then remove the incline motor from the treadmill, reconnect the wiring, plug in the treadmill and then try to run the incline motor outside the treadmill. Many times, this will unjam it if that is the problem and then reinstalling it in the treadmill will get it to work. If you have the same problem or it doesn’t run outside the machine and you can hear it try to work, you need to replace the incline motor.
If the incline motor does not move, we need to figure out if the motor is getting voltage. Use a simple multi-meter and set it to AC volts. When you put it into calibration, it tries to calibrate the directions one at a time. Measure across the white and black wires first, then measure across the white and red wires second. If the motor is getting voltage you will read 120VAC (or thereabouts) one one of the measurements. If you have voltage but the motor won't move, you need to replace the motor. . If the incline motor does not move and you have done the voltage test and you do not have any voltage present, there is a problem in the electronics board that supplies the power, you need to replace the board.

To find a specific bearing that has gone bad in a treadmill you can use a long handled screwdriver and touch it to a non-moving portion of the rollers and then put your ear up to the handle and the screwdriver will amplify the noise of the part so you can find out which part is making the noise. If it is a bearing, it will be obvious which part is the problem because the grinding noise of the bad bearing with be amplified by the screwdriver.

Although it is fairly rare the incline motor can jam up into the highest position and get stuck there. To fix this take off the plastic hood that covers the incline motor and depending on the motor you should be able to wind it with your hand out of the highest position. When it is out of the highest position run the calibration as described in the owner's manual and it should go all the way up and all the way down. If it is not this type of motor that can be wound by hand then the first and last thing to do is to try calibration of the incline as described in your manual. If this does not work then a new incline motor is needed.

I have a Horizon LS925T treadmill. It seems to jerk. I don't think the belt is slipping, more like the power roller is erratic. It rolls smooth then slows for a second which jerks the belt. Help.

Hi There, This sounds like the control board may be failing. Can you see the control board? Check the 3 larger capacitors for doming or bulging on the tops, which is a sign of high internal heating of the capacitors. This board, 032671 can have issues with these caps. Lubricate deck well, free spin the walking belt by hand to feel for jerky rollers and flat-spots in bearings, if all feels smooth, that controller is most likely at fault or a failing motor with partially shorted windings. Contact [email protected] for more help if needed.

How do I calibrate elevation grade for treadmill?

Hey there, sorry to hear you're having an issue with your elevation motor. I would be happy to help you solve the problem.
Since you already installed your motor you can go straight into diagnostic mode.

To get into Diagnostic Mode on your L8
Make sure to turn off your treadmill.

-ET's - Press Menu and Start at the same time
-CT's - Press Manual (or Display^) and Start at the same time
-All other L SERIES mills - Press Display (or display and Start at the same time

SideNote-
-*CT's that were manufactured after 09/2003 - Press Display and start at the same time.




Few things you want to do, if you haven't already.

A. Align the motor with the clevis mount and install the motor mounting pin.

B. Insert hitch pin.

C. Reconnect the elevation harness to the lower board

D. Set the lowest limit switch by holding the UP elevation button for 5 seconds. Then press and hold the DN elevation button one more time to make sure you only hear a click.

E. For L7/L8 machines; Thread the elevation nut to where its flush with the threads on the "worm' shaft.

F. Mount the elevation nut to the leg assembly by lining up the holes on the leg assembly. You may have to move the leg assembly so that the holes on the elevation nut line up. Then slide the two elevation pins through the elevation assembly and into the elevation nut. then secure the pins with the 2 set screws.




To calibrate your potentiometer you can try to adjust while it is installed but for best results you must calibrate it before its in your motor housing.







G. Calibrate the elevation potentiometer and to do so you must;
1st: Visually confirm treadmill is leveled. (0% grade)
2nd: Adjust the settings as follows;
All L SERIES millls should read 0.0
3rd: If the setting is incorrect, follow these steps.
Step 1: Turn the post of the potentiometer all the way
CLOCKWISE.
Step 2: SLOWLY turn the potentiometer COUNTER
CLOCKWISE until the setting is correct.

H. Carefully install potentiometer into the motor housing
*NOTE: The setting may vary when inserting the potentiometer
into the motor. As long as the change is minimal, fine
adjustment can be achieved by rotating the meter
while inside the elevation motor.

I. Press OFF to turn treadmill off. Then restart the machine in manual mode to TEST elevation after resetting your potentiometer. As long as the change is minimal, fine adjustment can be achieved by rotating the potentiometer while inside the elevation motor.


For more Diagnostic features and possibly further detail, I will be attaching a Link to your machines service manual. I hope this helps, always hear to help. SportSmith.

The console display on my Horizon Fitness T63 treadmill won't stop scrolling/flashing the programs (P1-P6) and will not start up.

Sounds like there is a stuck button on the console, or possibly a loose ribbon cable inside the upper console maybe?
