To access the battery compartment of the Pro-Form XP 185 U console, follow these steps:
1. Remove the battery cover from the console. 2. If the battery cover is attached with screws, unscrew them first. 3. Insert four D batteries into the battery compartments, ensuring correct orientation as shown in the diagrams inside. 4. Reattach the battery cover securely.
Important: If the console has been exposed to cold temperatures, let it warm to room temperature before inserting batteries to prevent damage to the display or electronic components.

Accessed the battery compartment and found that the spring on one compartment was completely broken off and is missing. Not reparable I assume. I appreciated your reply on how to access the batteries and I thank you for your precious time.

The manual does not provide specific instructions for replacing a broken spring in the battery compartment. However, you can try the following general steps:
1. Remove the Battery Cover – Detach the battery cover, which may be secured with screws. 2. Take Out the Batteries – Remove any existing batteries from the compartment. 3. Inspect the Spring – Check the broken spring’s position and how it is attached. 4. Replace the Spring – If you have a replacement spring, carefully insert it in the same position as the original. If the spring is soldered, you may need a small soldering tool. 5. Reinsert the Batteries – Ensure they are oriented correctly as shown in the compartment diagram. 6. Reattach the Battery Cover – Secure the cover back in place.
If you need a replacement part, check the manual for ordering details or contact customer support.

@Mr. Anderson thank you for your input! I will try to find a spring to replace and solder it for the fix. Thank you also for your precious time. Is it possible if I can not fix to purchase an entire new console?
Need help?
