sometimes you can fix it this way. In the place where you use it, slacken off the frame fixing bolts, give the cross trainer a bit of a shake and then tighten all the bolts up again. The helps to put equal pressure on all the parts.
If this is a bicycle computer you're talking about there's a little magnet that has to be installed on the spokes of the wheel. It passes within 1 millimetre of a receiver which should be placed on the bicycle forks. Everytime the wheel turns the magnet passes a signal through the receiver to the computer which operates the computer. If the magnet is not tight enough it will turn away from the receiver and will not work. If it passes more than 1 mm from the receiver it won't work.
This is a common problem for the CTR1, it actually sounds a lot worse than it is. It's just one of the 4 bolts that hold the front "pole" of the CTR1 in place that is broken. You will need to unscrew the bolts at the base (just move the plastic piece that hides the bolts up on the "pole"). After removing the pole you will need to remove the broken bolt from the inside of the "pole" with plyers. Then just put the pole back in the base, replace the screws (be sure to tighten them good). All will be good :)
This is a weak point of the CTR1, be prepared to run into the same problem again down the road...
