Treadmill will not power up or turn on

Here are a few potential solutions to try:

1. Check the safety key: Make sure that the safety key is securely inserted into the treadmill. The safety key is a small plastic key that is inserted into a slot on the console. It's a safety feature that prevents the treadmill from running without the key in place.
2. Check the power source: Make sure that the treadmill is plugged in and that the outlet is working properly. Try plugging in a different device to the outlet to ensure that it is providing power.
3. Check the reset switch: The reset switch is a small button or switch located on the treadmill's control board, which is typically located behind the control panel. Pressing the reset switch should turn off the power to the treadmill, and then turn it back on, similar to unplugging and plugging the device back in. Press the reset switch and check if the treadmill starts.
4. Check the belt: Make sure that the belt is properly aligned and tightened. If the belt is loose or misaligned, it can prevent the treadmill from starting.
5. Check the motor controller: The motor controller is the component responsible for controlling the treadmill's motor speed. If the motor controller is faulty, the treadmill will not start. To check if the motor controller is faulty, you can use a multimeter to check the voltage at the motor controller terminals. If there is no voltage, then the motor controller is faulty and needs to be replaced.

If none of these solutions work, then the issue may be with the internal components of the treadmill, which may require professional repair. It's best to consult the manual or contact the manufacturer or a professional technician for further assistance.

Unplug the treadmill from the surge suppressor and plug in a typical house vacuum.

Turn on vacuum. If breaker does not trip from the vacuum then treadmill power supply is likely kaput.

If breaker trips then likely it's not the treadmill. Bypass surge suppressor by plugging vacuum directly into same wall outlet as the suppressor. If breaker again trips, it's not the suppressor and more likely there is some type of circuit overload or other fault in the house branch circuit.

There is a power switch on the back of treadmill. Flip switch.

Power issues with ProForm treadmills fit into two categories: the power does not turn on or the power shuts off when using the treadmill. If the power will not turn on, make sure that the treadmill is plugged into a working power outlet. In addition, you should use a single-outlet surge protector for the treadmill. Single-outlet surge protectors protect the machine from any voltage changes that may occur in your home.

If the machine is plugged into a working outlet, make sure the safety key is in the keyhole on the console. If the safety key is not plugged into the machine or if it is pulled out during operation, the treadmill will not operate.

Finally, make sure the circuit breaker located on the frame near the power cord is set to "Reset." The circuit breaker is set to "Reset" if the top of the button is pushed in. When the breaker is tripped, push it back to the "Reset" position and wait five minutes before powering on the treadmill.

If the ProForm treadmill shuts off during operation, check the power cord and circuit breaker as described above. You can also try removing and reinserting the safety key.

Hi,

This message appears when you remove the Safety key.

Kindly provide me with the make and model of the machine?

Are you sure that the key is intact? Is it properly placed?

Thanks!!

Here is a basic procedure that will work for the majority of treadmills out in the market:
If the walking belt has shifted to the left, first remove the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using the allen wrench, turn the left rear roller adjustment bolt clockwise, and the right bolt counterclockwise, 1/4 of a turn each. Be careful not to overtighten the walking belt. Plug in the power cord, insert the key and run the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is centred. b.
