Treadmill switches on but start button does not work

Here are a few potential solutions to try:

1. Check the safety key: Make sure that the safety key is securely inserted into the treadmill. The safety key is a small plastic key that is inserted into a slot on the console. It's a safety feature that prevents the treadmill from running without the key in place.
2. Check the power source: Make sure that the treadmill is plugged in and that the outlet is working properly. Try plugging in a different device to the outlet to ensure that it is providing power.
3. Check the reset switch: The reset switch is a small button or switch located on the treadmill's control board, which is typically located behind the control panel. Pressing the reset switch should turn off the power to the treadmill, and then turn it back on, similar to unplugging and plugging the device back in. Press the reset switch and check if the treadmill starts.
4. Check the belt: Make sure that the belt is properly aligned and tightened. If the belt is loose or misaligned, it can prevent the treadmill from starting.
5. Check the motor controller: The motor controller is the component responsible for controlling the treadmill's motor speed. If the motor controller is faulty, the treadmill will not start. To check if the motor controller is faulty, you can use a multimeter to check the voltage at the motor controller terminals. If there is no voltage, then the motor controller is faulty and needs to be replaced.

If none of these solutions work, then the issue may be with the internal components of the treadmill, which may require professional repair. It's best to consult the manual or contact the manufacturer or a professional technician for further assistance.

You can try spraying it with Electrical Switch contact cleaner, or you can just replace it for $18. Check model first.

you must adjust the speed sensor +Reed switch see the diagram attached,
Test both for open or faulty. Clean it. And tight the connector very well.
Try to RUn THE SOFTWARE calibration for troubleshooting.

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.
Optical 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.
See the diagram for 1/8" or 3mms aprox. and clean up very well.
Attached is a Block Diagram for purpose to teaching people like you,that I did to show how the Main Controller has aprox 90% of functions of the treadmills.
You must clean the keypads with contact cleaner (spray radio schack or computer store) and then tighten the flexible cable to Display Board and then Connector from Display Board vs. Lower Boar( Main Controller Board) very well.
Good luck,sincerely.

hi,
from ur description i think ur treadmills control module have problem. motor driving card and motor is ok. normally there are no serviceable part inside the controlling module ( user interface module). only thing can do is remove the controlling module, take out its board check all the micro switches( press button switches) replace it found faulty or not( remember to remove the power before). the refix it and the test the tread mill.
ok
