Double check that all connections are secure, especially the console cable. Unplug and reconnect the console cable to verify. Unplug treadmill from wall outlet. Wait 60 seconds, allowing lower board to discharge built-up energy. Remove motor cover. Verify that there are no lights lit on the lower circuit board. Verify that all wires are securely and correctly placed on the lower circuit board, especially the large wire harness on the top of the circuit board with 12 different colored wires coming out of it.

1) Try to open the top consol.2) Spray with contact cleaner( from radio schack or computer store)3) Tight the flexible cable from keypanel vs display board4) Tight the connector from display board to Lower board( Main Controller Board)5) Test the main controller board.6) Test the transformer.Finally See the Block diagram that I did, you will see how the Main Controller Board has the 90% in any control. In that way you will have a good Strenght resultante, for to determine who is faulty. sincerely. Good luck.E.CUADRAMANAGUA, NICARAGUA. C.A

Oiling the deck of the treadmill with a silicone-based lubricant is an important aspect of routine maintenanceYou can buy online: www.fitnessrepairparts.comor www.gympart.comsincerely.E.CUADRAMANAGUA,NICARAGUA

This happened to my treadmill. You need to get to the motor and see if the belt is fraying. If so, the fibers may have gotten entangled in the motor causing it to stay at the highest incline level. Once you clear this the treadmill will go up and down again. Hope this helps!

If the console takes batteries, replace them. If this does not work or your console does not require batteries, check the reed switch or optic sensor. Reed Switch: Unplug the treadmill and remove the motor hood cover. The reed switch is mounted on the frame next to the front roller pulley. There is a magnet glued into the front roller pulley. When adjusting the reed switch, make sure it is pointing directly at the magnet. Move the tip of the reed switch within 1/8" of the magnet. Also, check to see that the wire is not damaged, and is connected to the console. Optic Sensor: Unplug the treadmill and remove the motor hood cover. The optic disk and sensor are located either at the end of the motor or the right hand side of the front roller. The optic disk spins between two sensors on the optic switch. The disk must spin freely without touching either sensor. The sensors can be moved by loosening the adjustment bolt holding the switch to its bracket. The switch can then be slid. Center the disk.

You should be able to just lift up the base and fold it into the supports,

Dear Sir: Will be a good Idea to replace with the original, and order to the Company. sincerely.God bless you. E.CUADRA MANAGUA, NICARAGUA. C.A.

Although most home treadmills are designed for easy operation, there are some common problems that are inevitable. The console may not display. Perhaps a loose or slipping running belt poses a safety hazard. Maybe the treadmill runs at an unpredictable speed. Those are just some of the things that can happen to bring your workout to a halt. While certain repairs will require the services of a professional who specializes in treadmill maintenance and repair, there are some basic repairs that you can do yourself.

Difficulty:

Moderate Instructions

1.

• 1

Clean and routinely maintain the running belt. The belt may be worn if the treadmill stops operating or trips the circuit breaker. Look for any tears in the belt. Test the belt by putting the treadmill at full incline. If it does not shut off, you may need to replace the belt. You can try lubricating it first, but the safest fix is simply to replace it.

• 2

Tighten the running belt if it is loose. A belt can slip if there is too much friction. Be careful not to tighten the belt too much, though. You should be able to lift the belt at least 3 inches.

• 3

Push the belt in the direction that it normally turns. Turn off the power before you start. If the belt is difficult to turn, there is high belt/deck friction. However, if the belt moves freely, that's not the problem.

• 4

Examine the roller sleeve to see if it is centered on the running belt. If not, this could cause the belt to move to one side. Often a common problem with treadmills, you can try making adjustments yourself, but eventually you may need to replace the sleeve or roller.

• 5

Stop the treadmill and immediately unplug the power cord from the outlet if you notice a burning smell. Overheating could be a sign that there is too much friction or a short in the wiring. Examine the belt and deck for any signs of wearing. If they check out alright, inspect the wiring. Replace any damaged parts as needed.

• 6

Check to make sure that the power switch is on if you suddenly lose power. If this isn't the cause of the power loss, unplug the treadmill from the wall outlet and individually test the fuses, breakers and switches. Test the wall outlet first, as a fuse may have blown or a circuit breaker tripped.

• 7

Allow the treadmill to run at a speed of 2.5 mph without anyone walking on it if you notice fluctuations in the speed. The speed should be constant. If not, there could be a problem with the motor.

• 8

Test the motor using a fully charged lantern battery. The motor should still operate at slow speed.

• 9

Replace the batteries in the panel if it dims. If the batteries aren't the problem, check to see that all the wiring is still intact. Sometimes a wire pulls loose. With this you can fix it.If you need further assistance, please reach me. sincerly. God bless you.E.CUADRAMANAGUA, NICARAGUA.
