Getting E5-5 error code on our Nautilus Treadclimber TC5000. Not sure what it means or what we need to do. Thanks for any help you can provide.
Follow the steps and fix it. God bless you
The power up test sequence has detected a key in the
operated condition. The power up test
sequence is performed every time the unit is turned on
(powered up). This test is performed
because a permanently stuck key will inhibit the
correct operation of the unit.
Possible Causes
1. A key on the display housing is permanently stuck
in the operated condition.
2. One of the upper PCA's keypad interface chips has
failed.
3. Liquid (perhaps perspiration) is present on the
surface of a touch sensitive display.
Possible Remedies
1. Remove the keypad connector cable from the upper
PCA. Restart the power up sequence, if
the ERROR 5 is no longer present, the keypad is the
cause. The keypad is typically part of
the display housing. Replace the display housing to
correct the problem.
2. Remove the keypad connector cable from the upper
PCA. Restart the power up sequence, if
the ERROR 5 is still
present, the upper PCA is the cause. Replace the upper PCA to correct
SOURCE: the machine will quit wright after you start and
Had my TC5000 for a year and this is the first time this happened. I use it everyday. Googled "Bowflex Teadclimber error codes" and found this link download.dfxi.com/supportdocs/AM/Bowflex/BFX_TC135_AM_2008.pdf which is a pdf manual.
I'm going to try this fix now, hope it works for you and me
Here's what it says for ERR LS:
Belts stop turning and “err LS”
or “err OS” is displayed
Calibration Re-calibrate machine using Owner’s Manual
calibration procedure.
Speed sensor 1. Cycle power off and on.
2. Put the machine in calibration mode (see Calibration
procedure in Owner’s Manual) but do not
start the calibration routine.
3. Remove right rear plastic cover to view LED
diagnostics on control board.
Caution: Machine is on. Current is active!!
4. Locate LED D on the motor controller board.
LED may be lit or unlit.
5. Manually advance the treadle with your foot,
and check if LED D is blinking.
6. If LED D is not blinking, then the speed sensor
is not supplying a signal. Check that the speed
sensor wire is plugged into the motor controller
board, to the connection labeled “P1”. Check
connection of speed sensor to jumper wire.
Check speed sensor adjustment (use business
card to set gap between sensor and pulley). If
LED D still does not flash replace sensor.
I/O cables If LED D is flashing when the belts are turning
but err LS or OS persists check connections and
for signs of visible damage to any of the three I/O
cables. If no damage, check continuity using a
multi-meter. If a multi-meter is not available contact
customer service for replacement cables
and further assistance.
