  • Page 26: Procedure 5.3 - Troubleshooting The Lift System

    9.45, 9.45i Treadmill Procedure 5.3 - Troubleshooting the Lift System, 9.45 Units) Lift System Description: The lift system on these units consists of an AC line voltage driven lift motor (120 Vac or 240 Vac), a hall effect rotation sensor and three position location switches. The lift system orients itself by locating the zero sense switch when the treadmill is powered up.
  • Page 27 (240 VAC units), replace the lift capacitor. If you have performed all of the above procedures and have been unable to correct the problem, call Precor Customer Support. Typically, when the lift is able to physically move but causes a lift error, the problem is in the lift position identification system (rotation sensor and zero sense switch).
  • Page 28 9.45, 9.45i Treadmill 10. Measure the voltage between the red wire (term. 4 of J3) and the black wire (term 1 of J3). The voltage should read a constant 5 Vdc. If the voltage is 0 or significantly lower than 5 Vdc, disconnect the rotation sensor connector from the lower PCA.
  • Page 29 9.45, 9.45i Treadmill Procedure 5.4 - Troubleshooting the Lift System, 9.45 (2P & 3Y Units) System Description The lift system is powered by a 120 Vac lift motor that uses two independent motors windings. One motor winding operates the motor in an upward direction and the other motor winding operates the motor in a downward direction.
  • Page 30 9.45, 9.45i Treadmill Remove the P2 connector from the lower board. Using an ohmmeter, measure between terminals 1 and 3 of P2, between terminals 1 and 2 of P2 and between terminals 2 and 3 of P2. The measurements should be approximately 14.5Ω, 14.5Ω and 29Ω, respectively. If any of the measurements are significantly low, replace the lift motor.
  • Page 31: Procedure 5.5 - Troubleshooting The External A.c. Power Source

    Procedure 5.5 - Troubleshooting the External A.C. Power Source It is extremely important that any Precor treadmill be connected to and operated on a dedicated 20 amp A.C. circuit. A 20 amp dedicated circuit is defined as: a circuit fed by a 20 amp circuit breaker that feeds a single load.
  • Page 32 9.45, 9.45i Treadmill The circuit breaker correctly feeds a single A.C. outlet but the neutral is common between several A.C. outlets. The common neutral lead must be removed from treadmill’s A.C. outlet and a new neutral lead from the treadmill’s A.C. outlet to the A.C. neutral distribution bar must be added.
