Resistance No Longer Changes. The Magnetic Resistance Strip Doesn't Move.

Does the above mean that the resistance motor has died. It's not cheap to replace so I want to be sure.

Causes

Several different factors can cause the resistance on your elliptical machine to stop working. If the power source is not at full capacity, the pedal resistance may not work. The wire between the resistance controls -- either the console or the tension knob -- and the motor can break. If the drive belt becomes loose, the resistance may slip or not work at all, even when you turn it on to the highest setting.

Here is a link that addresses this issue (troubleshooting including)
