If you can walk on your treadmill but it shuts down during a workout, it is normally caused by a friction problem with the belt and deck. Here are the most common symptoms and solutions:
Solution: The walking belt is worn. The incline test is the best test for it if you don’t have a way to take a DC amp draw. Put the treadmill at full incline and walk normally. If it takes longer to shut off or does not shut off at all, you need to replace the walking belt. Be sure to inspect the deck for wear too. If you want to go for a cheap fix (that we don’t recommend) try lubricating the walking belt. The best fix is to replace the walking belt and then regularly maintain it and keep the treadmill clean.
Solution: Your treadmill is most likely equipped with a heat sensor which shuts down the motor and/or electronics to prevent them from burning up. If this is the case, replace the walking belt. Be sure to inspect the deck for wear too. If you want to go for a cheap fix (that we don’t recommend) try lubricating the walking belt. The best fix is to replace the walking belt and then regularly maintain it and keep the treadmill clean.
Solution: If you get an error code, contact us [email protected] with the code and make and model and we will try to help you figure out what is going on. Typically we either find a loose wire, an intermittent short, a bad power board, or a bad control panel in service calls that we do locally. Unplug your treadmill and then check all your wiring to make sure nothing is pinched, crimped or loose. Remove and replace each connector in case corrosion is causing the problem. If the problem persists, you most likely have a bad control panel or some call it a console.
