Why is my nordictrack T6.3 making loud humming sound all of the sudden?

Bought this treadmill at Christmas time last year (2013)and had it assembled by sears. gets used about five times a week maybe less for about 40 mins @ a time. yesterday (july 2014) out of nowhere there was this really loud humming that I had never heard before while I was running. It increases in volume as I increase in speed. It sounds like the motor working really hard, but I also have a buddy who says I just need to oil the belt. Anyone else have this problem?

You don't oil belts as oil will eat away at the rubber. Start with running the machine and checking for lumps of wax build up at rollers (most common issue) if this is not it try oiling roller bearings. But call manufacturer first to see if your warranty is still good because as soon as you touch it it will void warranty.

SOURCE: Nordictrack motor will not run when start button is pushed.

Likely the cover of one of the motor brushes popped off. Unplug the machine before you pop it back in place, then try it again.

If that doesn't work, most likely it's the motor control board, or possibly the console, or finally just a loose connection behind the console.


But most likely, it's the motor brush cover. I've been seeing that alot with this model.

SOURCE: NordicTrack Z7xi treadmill console buttons not working

Hello there. It sounds as if you may have a button stuck on your console. Thus not allowing any other buttons to be pushed. (i.e. the 4 beeps). This is usually caused by the i-fit buttons (silver buttons on the front). If the machine is only 4 months old you should still be under warranty (1 year) I believe. This problem in most instances requires the console be replaced. You can contact nordictrack through iconservice.com or by using the number on the fron of your users manual.
Good Luck! Tim

Nordictrack 1900c treadmill making a horrible loud screeching noise when turned on

Sounds like your belt is slipping. Check your manual, it'll probably tell you how to service it.

I have a Nordictrack T9 ci. I will be on it and all of a sudden the console goes hay wire. it is touch screen and the screen just changes automatically constantly until it shuts off. Now if I recalibrate...

Nordictrack treadmills stink and so does their customer service. Depending on exactly when your mom bought the machine there is a small chance that there is a warranty. In the back of the manual it will list the warranty info. Check that with the date of purchase and see if any parts are covered. If they are then call Icon (the manufacturer) immediately. If it isn't under warranty then you are pretty much out of luck. You'd have to replace the console which is at least $500 but could easily be over $1,000.
