Here are some possible causes and solutions: Overheating: If the motor or electronics of the treadmill get too hot, the machine may shut down to prevent damage. Make sure that the treadmill is placed in a well-ventilated area and that the air filters are clean. You can also try lubricating the walking belt to reduce friction. Faulty speed sensor: If the speed sensor is malfunctioning, it may cause the treadmill to shut down. You can try cleaning the speed sensor with a soft cloth and see if that helps .

Incline won't work on Proform 400s Treadmill

If you've already replaced the lift motor on your Proform 400s Treadmill and the incline still won't work properly, there may be other underlying issues that need to be addressed. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try: Check the wiring: Ensure that all the wiring connections related to the incline mechanism are secure and properly connected. Loose or damaged wiring can cause issues with the incline functionality. Inspect the incline motor and gears: Examine the incline motor and gears for any signs of damage, misalignment, or obstruction. Ensure that the gears are engaging properly and that there are no obstructions preventing the incline from moving up and down smoothly. Reset the treadmill: Perform a full system reset on your treadmill. This can often resolve minor software glitches or issues that may be affecting the incline function. Consult your treadmill's user manual for instructions on how to perform a reset. Contact customer support: If you have followed the above steps and the issue persists, it is recommended to reach out to the customer support of Proform or the retailer from whom you purchased the treadmill. They should be able to provide further troubleshooting guidance or arrange for professional repair assistance if needed. Remember to exercise caution when working with electrical components or performing any repairs on your treadmill. If you are unsure or uncomfortable with the process, it is advisable to seek assistance from a qualified technician or the manufacturer's customer support to ensure proper diagnosis and resolution of the issue.

The motor on my proform 395e elliptical has begun humming and it is getting louder and louder. Is there a remedy?

There are a few potential remedies for a humming motor on a Proform 395e elliptical:
  1. Tighten any loose parts: If the humming noise is coming from the motor, it could be caused by loose parts that are vibrating against each other. Try tightening any screws or bolts that may be causing the noise.
  2. Check the belt: The belt that connects the motor to the elliptical's flywheel may be loose or damaged, which can cause a humming noise. Tighten the belt or replace it if it is damaged.
  3. Check the flywheel: If the flywheel is damaged or out of balance, it can cause the motor to vibrate and make a humming noise. Check the flywheel for damage and replace it if necessary.
  4. Check the motor bearings: If the motor bearings are worn or damaged, they can cause the motor to vibrate and make a humming noise. Check the motor bearings and replace them if necessary.
If you are unable to identify the source of the humming noise or fix it yourself, it is recommended that you contact Proform customer service or a qualified technician for assistance.

Proform 505 cst belt slipping left and has crease

It's alway a good idea to replace any belt that shows signs of damage as this is a weak point on the belt and you risk it snapping, then you'll have to replace it anyway. Check the alignment of the pulleys the belt drives. Check they line up with each other and they spin without any wobble. Belts for these machines are usually not expensive. I would recommend you buy an original one from the manufacturer as this will be the one designed specifically for that job.

My left pedal keeps falling off of my proform pfex26820.0

Just my thoughts. If the treads are stripped are warn on the pedal or inside the arm. The threads in the arm may need to be tapped or the threads on the shaft need to be rethreaded to clean the threads. Could be the bearing in the pedal is not turning free and as you pedal the bike it is unscrewing the pedal from the arm. After you tighten the pedal shaft to the arm the pedal should turn freely on the shaft and not bind.
