Hi,
I will advice you try re-calibrate your treadmill, follow the procedure below to re-calibrate it,
Step 1
Stand on the side rails of the treadmill for safety purposes. Remove the safety key.
Step 2 Press and hold the two
incline buttons. The incline buttons are blue and on the left side of
the display. Hold the up and down button simultaneously. Release the
buttons when the display reads "Calibration."
Step 3 Press the green start
button located either above or below the large, red stop button
(depending on your model). Stay on the side rails as the treadmill belt
begins to move. Both the speed and incline should go through their full
range from lowest to highest, and then back down again.
Step 4 Repeat the process if the
display does not read "Calibration Successful."
o 1
Ensure that the treadmill is plugged into a grounded outlet using the correct surge suppressor. Use a UL 1449 suppressor listed as a transient voltage surge suppressor (TVSS). It must be rated for 15 amps and 120 volts AC. Secure the services of an electrician if the outlet is not grounded, or move the Proform treadmill near a grounded outlet. Do not use an extension cord.
o 2
Insert the safety key fully into the display. Treadmills with keys are designed not to turn on without the safety key in place.
o 3
Find the circuit breaker on the front of the frame and make sure it is not tripped. The circuit breaker is a vertical switch on the 540S and a horizontal switch on the 540 Interactive Trainer. Press it to the "Reset" position, which will be labeled.
2. Reed Switch
o 1
Unplug the treadmill and remove the safety key.
o 2
Move the upright base of the treadmill down with the help of another person and lift the uprights so that you can get to the underside of the console. Use a Phillips screwdriver with at least a 5-inch shaft to remove the screws. There are five hood screws on the 540 Interactive trainer and four screws on the 540S.
o 3
Remove the motor hood to get to the small reed switch by pivoting the hood off the frame. Find the reed switch and magnet, which are on the left side of the pulley for both models.
o 4
Turn the pulley with your hand until the reed switch aligns with the magnet. There should be 1/8-inch gap between the two. Fix the distance so that it is 1/8 inch by loosening the reed switch screw and sliding it to the correct distance. Tighten the screw.
o 5
Reverse the directions to put the hood back on and the treadmill upright in the original position.
With this you will fix. See the Videos:
