There may be a problem with your machine if the speed varies as you are running. Begin by checking the owner's manual for the recommended speed setting. Set the machine to the recommended setting but do not get on. Observe the treadmill for several minutes to see if there is any hitching in the belt. If there is, this is often a sign that you need a new belt. If the machine shuts down, there may be a problem with the motor or the machine may have a faulty circuit.
Slipping Belt
If you feel a slipping sensation when using your treadmill, it may be in need of minor treadmill repair. To fix treadmill problems associated with slippage, align and tighten the running belt. Belts can slip when there is too much friction or if the belt is over-tightened. To check if the belt is too tight, lift it in the center. There should be a gap of approximately two to three inches. If not, the belt is likely too tight.
No Display
When problems occur with the console display, the solution is usually something minor. To fix treadmill console displays, check the length of the power cord and visible wires. Worn batteries or crimped cords will need to be replaced. Treadmill repairs associated with treadmills with a magnetic pickup on the flywheel will include a thorough examination. The magnet may have fallen off and may need to be replaced. If the console develops static, the circuit breaker may need to be reset. Unplug the power cord for 60 seconds to fix this problem.
Burning Smell
If you are experiencing a burning smell from the treadmill, treadmill repairs may require minor to major fixes. Immediately turn off the treadmill and unplug the power cord from the wall. Common causes of a burning smell from a treadmill include friction between the deck and back or a short in the wiring, electronics, or motor. These problems could potentially cause a fire, making immediate treadmill repair essential.
Non-Working Motor
Fixing a non-working treadmill motor can be one of the more costly treadmill repairs an owner may run into. The motor may need to be replaced if it is powered at full speed, cannot be adjusted, and continues not to work or works poorly. Treadmills that power on at a full speed often run into problems with failed circuits. These erratic problems can lead to safety issues. If may not be possible to fix treadmill motors. The circuit or motor may need to be completely replaced by a professional.
Heated Belt
Too much friction on the running belt can cause the belt to heat up and not run properly. Treadmills require lubrication to limit the amount of friction between the platform and belt. When the friction increases to a certain point, the machine is automatically set to power off. This may be the cause for the machine to stop working suddenly. Try to lubricate the belt to see if the problem is fixed. Ultimately, the belt may need to be replaced.
It is common to run into some problems when learning how to fix a treadmill. While the problems mentioned above are common problems associated with treadmill machines, the solution is not always easy. Treadmill parts may need to be completely replaced before the machine can be used again. It's important to learn how to fix a treadmill the correct way to avoid injury to yourself and damage to the machine. Troubleshooting the treadmill can help determine the point of failure within the machine. This will also give you the opportunity to fix or replace the part yourself or with the help of a skilled repair technician.
