Our Nordic Trak treadmill squeaks very loudly when in the incline position and as a step is taken. It has been used almost daily for 8 months and I expect it's from the use as well as the weight of those using it. Is there a way to repair it?

If the belt on your Nordic Track T12 si treadmill is not running even though the display and other functions appear to be working, there are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

1. Check the safety key: Ensure that the safety key is properly inserted into the console. The treadmill will not operate if the safety key is not securely in place.
2. Reset the treadmill: Turn off the treadmill and unplug it from the power source. Wait for a few minutes, then plug it back in and turn it on. This can help reset the treadmill's internal systems and may resolve any temporary issues.
3. Calibrate the incline: If you recently used the incline function, it's possible that the calibration of the incline mechanism is off. Consult the user manual for instructions on how to calibrate the incline. This process may vary depending on the specific model of your treadmill.
4. Check the motor and drive belt: Inspect the motor and drive belt for any signs of damage or wear. If the drive belt is loose or worn out, it may prevent the belt from moving properly. If necessary, consult the user manual or contact Nordic Track customer support for guidance on inspecting and adjusting the motor and drive belt.
5. Lubricate the belt: Insufficient lubrication can cause the belt to stick or not move smoothly. Refer to the user manual for instructions on how to properly lubricate the treadmill belt. Use a silicone-based lubricant recommended by the manufacturer.
6. Contact customer support: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it is advisable to reach out to Nordic Track's customer support. Provide them with detailed information about the problem and any troubleshooting steps you have already taken. They will be able to offer further assistance, including potential repair options or guidance from a technician.

The incline system may need to be calibrated. To initiate the calibration routine follow the steps below.

Step 1
Place the key into the machine. The key's slot is located on the bottom of the console, below the start and stop buttons.

Step 2
Press any of the incline buttons and then remove the key from the machine while the incline is changing. Pause for a few seconds and then put the key back into the slot.

Step 3
Wait as the treadmill automatically shifts to the highest possible incline and then descends to the lowest level. The treadmill should now be recalibrated.

Plug the power out and plug it back in after a count of 50 could be that it needs to be reset .then plug back in the power and see what its doing if no luck go to manual and look for reset

Run the software calibration for easy diagnostic and fix it.

Go under the HOOD cover motor, follow the steps.

God bless you

please RUN the software calibration and fix it

The Steps for Newer Style Console Calibration

1. Locate the calibration area on the rear or underside of the console (a hole, near the console's center, that goes through to the electronics board. (This hole should not have a screw in it.)

2. Insert a pencil (eraser end), into the hole and feel around for the cal button (will click when pressed).

3. Press the button 2 times (with the pencil eraser). The first click should show CL11 in the console, the second click should show CL21.

4. If the process was done correctly, and CL21 appears in the console, you are in "calibration mode." The next few steps consists of pressing buttons on the console and observing settings. This will not require any other tools.

5. Press ENTER. CL22 should display in the TIME window and (??) in the SPEED window.

6. Press ENTER. CL23 should display in the TIME window and (??) in the SPEED window.

7. Press ENTER. CL24 should display in the TIME window and (??) in the SPEED window.

8. Press ENTER. CL25 should display in the TIME window and (??) in the SPEED window.

9. Press ENTER. CL26 should display in the TIME window. You should then see the letter "E."

10. Press ENTER. You should see "SS" or "55" in the console.

11. Push the STOP/START button. For safety, at this point, you should step off, or be off, the treadmill.

12. Push the ENTER button. The walking belt should start to move, accelerate to maximum speed, then stop on its own.

13. When the belt stops, the incline should self test by raising to its highest incline position, then lowering back down to its lowest position.

14. Once the incline test is complete, push the POWER button 2 times. The unit should shut off and the console should go completely blank. If this happens, the treadmill is done calibrating and is ready for use.

15. If the letter "F" appears in the SPEED or INCLINE window when the power button is pressed 2 times, the treadmill is indicating a failure somewhere either in the SPEED or INCLINE (depending on the window the "F" appeared in). Troubleshooting the failure would be the next step.

There's a special silicone-based treadmill lubricant that you put between the belt and rollers See this treadmill accessory kit

My Nordic Track Treadmill A2250 is stuck on the 12% incline position and it wont go back down and I have tried to reset it by turning it off, switching the reset button to off and then on or even unplugging it several times. What would be my next move?

I know it's been months, but, if you still have this problem try this: 1. remove the philips screws holding the motor/belt/electronics cover on: you can lay the whole thing on it's side and remove them from the bottom. there's two in the front and two on the sides.
2. Obviously, unplug the unit! before doing anything. lay the unit back on it's feet (normal position)
3. Find the incline motor assembly. it will be int he middle of everything. black tube thingy.
4. take a cordless drill with a flat head screw driver bit, and turn the incline motor CCW. until the bed is flat.
5. what what I have read, you should shop for a new incline sensor. these fail before the motor does.
