Can't get any power running on my 5500 hr life cycle

Possible causes for a dead battery or it not holding charge

1. Battery has lost its ability to hold a charge (dead battery)
2. Charging system on unit has failed (battery cables, alternator, or alternator control board)
3. Stuck key on the display is causing a constant draw from the battery.

Replacement Parts for Fitness Exercise Equipment at SPORTSMITH

If the battery continues to fail, I would check the alternator brushes and see if they need to be replaced. Chances are they are worn and the battery is not being recharged sufficiently.

Battery 6 Volt 2 5 Amp Hr LifeFitness 0017 00003 0685 SPORTSMITH net

Same as above, have an Edge 491 with E1 and need to fix it

If u have a edge 491r recumbent bike forget it no parts this company fitness quest is pitiful purchased this bike in 06 already cant get parts for it

sounds like the keypad is not functioning since this is one of their older model I recommend call Life fitness and see if parts are available their # is 1-800-351-3737 they will probably will ask for a s#

On the bottom the bike frame their should be s# plate. If you need to replace the battery you need to: first remove the foot pedals,then side panels.

A 6v @ 2.5Ah battery should be in the frame
they sold run about $20.00 to $27.00 plus S/H

the display quit working on the 9100 seris

You can test the HR grips to see if the wiring is good all the way from the contact grips to the upper board by doing a test with your meter. Get a meter that can test fuses and beeps if the fuse is good.
disconnect the 4 pin brown connector at the console board, on one side will be some metal contacts.
Touch one end of the meter lead to one wire and the other to the HR contact plate on the handlebar. try all the contact plates on the handle bar until it beeps, then move the lead to the next wire and repeat until all contact plates beep. It all of them beep then your wiring is ok and the problem is in the Heart Rate board in the console or the connection point on the board.
Let me know how it turns out.

Change the battery. It is a 9v battery behind the small door on the back of the display panel.
