Error 5Description
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
this problem. Most upper PCA's are provided without
software. Therefore, the software (chip)
must be removed from the upper PCA being replaced and
re-installed on the replacement
upper PCA.
3. Wipe the surface of the touch sensitive display
clean of all liquid. Restart the power up
sequence, if the
please make this steps and fix it. God bless you
Probable Cause
1. AC input voltage is incorrect.2.
AC input voltage transients. Transients can be caused by lightning
strikes or by other pieces of equipment sharing the unit's AC power.
Corrective Action
Verify AC feed into the building's circuit breaker is correct and connected to the proper transformer tap.
Ensure the AC grounding for the unit's outlet is good and verify the unit is connected to an isolated and dedicated 20 amp circu
I recommend that you call the factory. They have bad disegned with the hardware, they can exchange the old board by new ones without cost.Reach them and explain the problem. go to www.bowflex.comGod bless you
Dear Sir:If really the machine stop every 10 seconds, you have a problem with LUBE seriousle, by lack of maintenance in according with the schedule of instructions manual.This produce ENOUGH friction between deck vs deck belt, shut down the electronic system for protection. Proceed.2) The deck belt can be worn, by lack of LUBE3) You must check the drive belt motor4) Test the rollers bearing by lack of LUBE5) Test the motor input voltage, the main motor can be needed repair, bearing faulty, winding burn.6) Main motor board test the output for input to the main motor.7) You can adjust the speed sensor, clean, and tight the connector wires very well, see the diagram attached.finally after you did every test, RUN the software calibration. sincerely. God bless you
see the diagram attached and adjust the REED switch. clean it, test for open or faulty, and tight the connector very well 2).Open the display and clean the ribbon cable very well and keypads for dirty or oxide, and connector from upper board.3) if has battery replace and clean the contacts battery very well.God bless you
Thank you by your request. I hope everything is o.k
Now I will try to help you.
You have electrical-mechanical Problem:
If you can walk on your treadmill but it shuts down during a workout, it is normally caused by a friction problem with the belt and deck. Here are the most common symptoms and solutions: Symptom: The treadmill operates for a given period of time and the circuit breaker on the treadmill trips causing you to have to reset the breaker, or let it cool off then reset the breaker. The amount of time required to shut down will progressively get shorter. Solution: The walking belt is worn. The incline test is the best test for it if you don't have a way to take a DC amp draw. Put the treadmill at full incline and walk normally. If it takes it longer to shut off or does not shut off at all, you need to replace the walking belt. Be sure to inspect the deck for wear too. If you want to go for a cheap fix try lubricating the walking belt. The best fix is to replace the walking belt and then regularly maintain it and keep the treadmill clean.
Symptom:The treadmill will show power but after a given period of time, the treadmill will simply shut down. Once you let it cool off, you can restart it back up but it shuts down faster and the time required before it shuts down gets progressively shorter. Solution: Your treadmill is most likely equipped with a heat sensor which shuts down the motor and/or electronics to prevent them from burning up. If this is the case, replace the walking belt. Be sure to inspect the deck for wear too. If you want to go for a cheap fix (that we don't recommend) try lubricating the walking belt. The best fix is to replace the walking belt and then regularly maintain it and keep the treadmill clean.
Symptom: The treadmill shuts down in an intermittent pattern...there is no rhyme or reason to when it will shut down. I get an error code or nothing shows up on the panel. I have to either unplug the treadmill or reset it to restart the treadmill. Solution: If you get an error code, contact us with the code and make and model and we will try to help you figure out what is going on. Typically we either find a loose wire, an intermittent short, a bad power board, or a bad control panel in service calls that we do locally. Unplug your treadmill and then check all your wiring to make sure nothing is pinched, crimped or loose. Remove and replace each connector in case corrosion is causing the problem. If the problem persists, you most likely have a bad control panel or some call it a console.
see the video and proceed with the test normal After that you must see the diagram attached. and troubleshootingHowever you can test the board by following this. a) test the input voltage motor, if there are Voltage the motor need repair b) test the output voltage board for input voltage board, if there are NOT voltage the board is faulty see the block diagram, and see my personal TIPS for motor help.God bless you
Resetting the button with Stop +Speed by 10 sec.However you must LUBE the deck belt AND rollers bearings. This happen because the lack of maintenance schedule, You must do it every 150miles aprox.See the video
RUN the software calibration for easy diagnotic, troubleshooting, and fix it. God bless youProceed with this steps.
The Steps
for Newer Style Console Calibration:
Locate the calibration area on the
rear or underside of the console (a hole, near the console's center,
that goes through to the electronics board. (This hole should not
have a screw in it.)
Insert a pencil (eraser end),
into the hole and feel around for the cal button (will click
when pressed).
Press the button 2 times
(with the pencil eraser). The first click should show CL11
in the console, the second click should show CL21.
If the process was done correctly,
and CL21 appears in the console, you are in "calibration
mode." The next few steps consists of pressing buttons
on the console and observing settings. This will not require
any other tools.
Press ENTER. CL22 should display
in the TIME window and (??) in the SPEED window.
Press ENTER. CL23 should display
in the TIME window and (??) in the SPEED window.
Press ENTER. CL24 should display
in the TIME window and (??) in the SPEED window.
Press ENTER. CL25 should
display in the TIME window and (??) in the SPEED window.
Press ENTER. CL26 should
display in the TIME window. You should then see the
letter "E."
Press ENTER. You should see "SS"
or "55" in the console.
Push the STOP/START button. For
safety, at this point, you should step off, or be off, the
treadmill.
Push the ENTER button. The walking
belt should start to move, accelerate to maximum speed, then stop on
its own.
When the belt stops, the
incline should self test by raising to its highest
incline position, then lowering back down to its lowest
position.
Once the incline test is complete,
push the POWER button 2 times. The unit should shut off and the
console should go completely blank. If this happens, the
treadmill is done calibrating and is ready for use.
If the letter "F" appears in the SPEED or INCLINE
window when the power button is pressed 2 times, the treadmill
is indicating a failure somewhere either in the SPEED or
INCLINE (depending on the window the "F" appeared
in). Troubleshooting the failure would be the next step.
adjust the REED swtch, and speed sensor, test it, clean it, and tight the plug or connector.2) Tight the upper cable vs lower cable3) Tight the ribbon cable for keypads4) Run again the s. calibration.God bless you
finally after you did every test, RUN the software calibration. sincerely. God bless you
