Hi Abraham.

What I'm finding in the way of manuals isn't more specific than that the system uses 2 'D' size batteries, which should last about 800 hours. A review here
Lifecycle GX Review Spin Bike Reviews Indoors Fitness (about 2/3 way down the page) mentions that the batteries are in the console and easy to replace. I'd look for a battery door, likely secured with a small phillips head screw, and large enough to accommodate D Cells. It also mentions that there is a low-battery warning at the top of the console.

Hoping this narrows it down for you.
D

Installing batteries for display on my Vitamaster 8711 treadmill

The battery compartment for the display on the Vitamaster 8711 treadmill is typically located on the underside of the display console. You may need to unscrew or unclip the console to access the battery compartment. Once you have access, insert the required batteries according to the polarity markings (usually indicated by a plus and minus sign). Make sure to replace the battery cover securely before reattaching the console. The specific battery type and number required for your treadmill's display should be listed in the user manual or on the console itself.

How to replace a battery on the life fitness 5500 stepper

Replacement Parts for Fitness Exercise Equipment at SPORTSMITH

Some of these units have 9 volt battery found in the back of the console. Also some of these units that do not have the 9 volt battery, still used the same console shell. If you have an empty spot with no wiring in it, then you are fully relying on your external power supply. I am attaching a link to the picture of the back of the console I am referencing.

I have a nordictrack audiostrider 800 that i just replaced the console. now the resistance won't work. thoughts?

The way to tell if your NordicTrack digital console is bad is to troubleshoot it first. If nothing works, you've got a bad console. The digital console is an important part of exercising. A manual machine will still work even if the console doesn't, but an automated machine needs the console to work so you can adjust things like speed, resistance and incline. You also can't use programs or see your time, distance or estimated calories burned without a working console. The two most common reasons that a console will be dim, display bad results, or won't turn on are bad batteries and a problem with the reed switch.

  1. Replace the Batteries
    • 1 Replace the batteries first, if your machine has batteries. A manual machine such as the NordicTrack MTN 740 will not need batteries, and instead the console is powered by your moving the steps. Check your manual if you are unsure of which batteries to buy. Different machines will require different batteries. The NordicTrack Mini Stepper uses watch batteries, but larger machines will likely need AA or D batteries.
    • 2 Take off the cover to the battery compartment. Remove and discard the old batteries. Replace all of the batteries, not just one if you happen to have one good one. Align them correctly with the "+" and "-" signs as shown on the compartment.
    • 3 Replace the battery cover and attempt to turn on the console.
    Reset the Circuit Breaker
    • 1 Check the circuit breaker. A machine such as the NordicTrack CXT 990 will have a circuit breaker located on the front of the machine. The console will not work if the circuit breaker is tripped.
    • 2 Push the circuit breaker in if it protrudes until it sticks.
    • 3 Try to turn on the console. Check the circuit breaker for your house if this does not fix the console problem.
    Adjust the Reed Switch
    • 1 Inspect the reed switch as the information on the display will not be true if the reed switch is too far from the flywheel on NordicTrack machines such as the MTN 740.
    • 2 Unscrew the two M10 by 82mm button bolts on the right pedal bracket. Unscrew the two M10 nylon locknuts. Pull off the pedal bracket and set aside.
    • 3 Remove the two M4 by 38mm screws. Remove the three M4 by 25mm screws. Slide the right side shield off to expose the flywheel, magnet reed switch.
    • 4 Unscrew the screw that holds the reed switch in place but do not remove it. Slide the reed switch toward the flywheel but leave enough space that the magnet can move freely. Replace the shield and bracket

Where is the battery in a pspgo

The PSP Go battery is located beneath the back plastic panel of the console. You're going to need a small Phillip's screwdrivers to unscrew the four screws on the back cover and then gently pry it open to reveal the battery. If you're planning on replacing the battery, you have to be careful not to damage the void sticker because Sony made the battery non-replaceable for consumers.
Here's a detailed guide on how to replace the battery/ get to it from ifixit.

How do you turn it on.

HI, try these steps...

  • 1

  • Change the batteries. Sometimes this seems like a simple and obvious step, but is often overlooked. The Leapster console runs off of four AA batteries.

  • 2

    Hold the power button on the Leapster console. If you still do not see a display on the screen with a fresh set of batteries, then you got one of the bad consoles. This was a bad batch of consoles that were sent out by Leapster.

  • 3

    Contact Leapster customer support. They should be able to replace your Leapster learning system free of charge. With all of your information ready, it should be quick and easy to get a replacement console.

    Cannot connect the controller to the console

    There are two synch buttons. The one on the console and there's also one beside the batteries that you replaced. 
    Try both and you should be back online.

    My N64 game keeps erasing the memory

    Seems like the internal save battery died, preventing any saved files from lasting after the console has been turned off. You can either open up the cart and replace the battery or just purchase another cart to replace the one that isn't saving.
