Motor controller malfunction or defective drive motor.

Call the 800 number on the front of your owner's manual (downloadable at iconservice.com) for service. Most likely your console is shot. It is easy to swap out, but costs a little bit. Also, make sure your safety key is on. Consoles do not operate without that little red key in the front.

Adjust the REED swicht , see diagram, clean it, and tight the plug very well.

2) clean the ribbon cables, for keypads, clean it.
3) tight the connector from display board vs lower board too
see the block diagram
After you fix it. RUN the software calibration for diagnostic, troubleshooting. too
God bless you

1) test the outlet wall , put a desklamp and see if work, if work the problem will be in the machine,
2) test the fuse inside for blown and replace with the same capacity
3) reset the circuit breaker inside.
4) test the power cord for open or defective.
Try again, if the machine NOT work, the problem will be in the power supply see the block atached.
God bless you

this might help. How to Troubleshoot ProForm Buttons

1) You must check the flexible cord between display board vs controller motor board, and tight very well

2) Try to access to the keypanel and clean with special spray (clean contact you can find in radio schack or computer store).

3) Try to Measure the +5Vdc for I.C. including EPROM, ROM, etc.

4) And try again.

5) Measure if the power supply to display is coming out from the Lower board or Motor controller board. If not the Motor controller is faulty. You must replace it.

Use Dvoltmeter.

Remember 90% aprx the Motor controller board access to the function in the display board, elevation motor, power input, etc.

looks like a incline sensor

It's either the electronics console overlay -- this thing often goes on this model -- or your motor is shot.

Have you ever seen it working?

Repairs can expensive.

You can buy an excellent replacement console electronics part for $100 (http://www.treadmilldoctor.com/Nordictrack-Console-Keypad-Overlay) , but if it's actually the motor, then you've still got more to spend.

In home service can easily run $150 for the call plus cost of parts.

If you decide that you're not going to try and get it repaired and you're going to toss it, I'd like to buy some plastic housing parts off that non-working unit from you. Please email me directly.

Cheers,
Mark
