Solution
All wires in cable must be intact. Replace
the cable if the wires are crimped or cut.
Make sure the cable is correctly
positioned and connected. Small latch
on connector must line up and click into
position.
Replace the Flywheel or full base
assembly if you do not see a magnet.
RPM sensor must be aligned with magnet
and connected to data cable. Re-align
sensor if necessary. Replace if there
is any damage to sensor or connecting
wire.
Check connection of Remote Operation
Control Wires at Console and at controls.
Make sure the base wires of the upper
Handrail to the Console Mast connect.
Replace the wires if pinched or cut.
Make sure the cable is connected
correctly to the Console.
Make sure hands are centered on HR
sensors. Hands must be kept still with
relatively equal pressure applied to each
side.
Sensors can have difficulty with dried or
calloused hands. A conductive electrode
cream such as Buh-Bump™ can help
make a better conduct.
Replace the Handlebars if the tests show
no other issues.
Level the machine by turning the feet in
or out.
Level the machine by turning the feet in
