Proform 740CS runs okay but the incline does not

Proform 740CS treadmill runs okay but the incline feature stopped working. I pulled off the cover and can measure voltages, but don't know what to check. Any ideas?

    Can you hear the motor trying to work at all? If it moves a little, but not to capacity it may just need calibrated.

ProForm Treadmills have a reset procedure for the incline function. With the key inserted in the console, activate the incline; while the incline is changing, remove the key. Wait 30 seconds, then replace the key. The incline should to maximum, then to minimum, resetting its limits. It worked for mine just 10 minutes ago; the procedure is in the manual if you have it. Good luck!

After recalibration, incline still doesn't work

Some elevation motor has 3 things:
1) Capacitor test it.
2) Limit switch for up and down,
3) Relais for up and down.
You must test it before to replace the complete elevation motor.
4) See if there are 110Vac to the terminal of the motor, if there are the motor is Faulty, If not test the 3 steps mentioned before.
You can go to Treadmill Doctor

Treadmill wont stop inclining

If the recalibrate doesn't work swap the red and black wires on the incline motor and re plug the treadmill to the wall and let go all the way to bottom. Unplug then remove wires from incline motor and tape off. At least then u can still run on it. But incline feature is no longer an option
