You put the frame tag (very little board) cable on backwards.

My Reebok 9500 ES Treadmill is stuck at it's max incline.

  1. Check the belt: Make sure the belt is properly aligned and tensioned, as a misaligned or loose belt could cause the incline to get stuck.
  2. Check the incline motor: If the incline motor is not functioning properly, it could be preventing the incline from moving. You may need to have the motor inspected or replaced.
  3. Check the incline sensors: If the incline sensors are not functioning properly, they could be preventing the incline from moving. You may need to have the sensors inspected or replaced.
  4. Check the control board: If the control board is not functioning properly, it could be preventing the incline from moving. You may need to have the control board inspected or replaced.

My Reebok Jet 200 is stuck at an incline

If your Reebok Jet 200 treadmill is stuck at an incline and you are unable to lower the incline to the 0 position, there are a few things you can try to fix the problem:
  1. Check the incline motor and make sure that it is properly installed and functioning. If the motor is damaged or not functioning properly, it may be causing the incline to remain stuck.
  2. Check the incline control board and make sure that it is properly connected to the incline motor and other treadmill components. If the control board is damaged or not functioning properly, it may be causing the incline to remain stuck.
  3. Check the incline cable and make sure that it is not frayed or damaged. If the cable is damaged, it may be causing the incline to remain stuck.
  4. Check the treadmill's belt and make sure that it is properly aligned and tightened. If the belt is misaligned or loose, it may be causing the incline to remain stuck.
  5. Check the treadmill's power supply and make sure that it is properly connected and functioning. If the power supply is not functioning properly, it may be causing the incline to remain stuck.
If you have tried all of these steps and are still having issues with the incline on your Reebok Jet 200 treadmill remaining stuck, you may want to consult a professional for further assistance. A treadmill repair technician will be able to diagnose the problem and recommend the best course of action to fix it.

Error 7

Incline calibration is necessary when: the display shows ERR7, the drive board incline error LED ( LED5) lights or the incline has extended beyond its normal rangeThe goal of calibration is to synchronize the incline set mechanically and electronically. Mechanical calibration sets the incline motor pipe to the 0% position. This happens when the red line on the thin pipe is even with the end of the thick pipe. Electronic calibration sets the variable resistor (VR) value to the 0% position. This happens when the voltage across the VR blue and green wires is 1.20 VDC.
Readings of VR voltage (blue and green wires) should show around 1.20 VDC at the lowest position and around 3.80 VDC at the highest position. If the VR looses calibration or cannot be set to 1.20 VDC, replace the VR. If the incline motor gets voltage from the drive board but fails to operate, replace the incline motor set. If the incline fuse blows again and again, replace the incline motor set.

Treadmill stuck on highest incline....and motor running...but seems stuck...won't come down

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.

Proform 2500 treadmill stuck in incline position

Under the motor shroud their is a instruction mini manual it will have a how to calibrate the incline motor, if that does not fix it then you may have to manually adjust the incline motor and sometimes it will take awhile to realign . If that does not work replacing the motor maybe the only option

My smoothfitness 5.25 treadmill is stuck in the

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.

My treadmill is stuck at the highest incline and will not decline

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.
