Stairmaster Stepmill 7000 Pt Questions & Answers
I just bought a stairmaster 7000pt with a broken console screen. I replaced all the broken parts but it's still not working. Any ideas?
Display reads CONFIG RQRD or NTM CONFIG RQD on Stairmaster Equipment
Probable Cause
The message CONFIG RQRD or NTM CONFIG RQD appears when the console needs to be configured for the machine type it is installed. This message is common when the console has been replaced or if the settings have been changed. Message is commonly seen on various Stairmaster equipment such as bike models 3000CE, 3300CE, 3400CE, 3600RC, 3800RC and 3900RC; stepper models 4400PT, 4600PT, 4400CL, 4600CL and SC916; stepmill models 7000PT and SM916; elliptical model ClubStride 5100.
Corrective Action
- Make sure the unit is in an "idle" state. "Idle" state means the console is not displaying an error or any message that requires data input. The display should basically be freshly powered up, scrolling the EKG or welcome message
- Configure the console for the proper machine type by pressing Level UP, 80, ENTER
- Using the Level UP or Level DOWN keys, scroll through to the proper machine type (Bike, Elliptical, Stairclimber or Stepmill)
- Once the proper machine type is shown on the display select the machine type by pressing ENTER
- This completes the steps necessary when your Stairmaster display reads CONFIG RQRD or NTM CONFIG RQD

About This Video
This video covers the electronic troubleshooting for a complaint of No Resistance on the
Stairmaster Stepmill 916. Tools Needed: Multi Meter, Assistant for Testing Purposes
It is necessary to begin by removing the user's right side cover to gain access to lower control board and alternator for testing purposes.
- Using your multi meter on the volts setting, you will place your black meter lead to the Ground test point on the lower board and place your red meter lead into the back of the cable connector where the brown wire is located. Have your assistant step onto the steps. Voltage should be present. If no voltage is present, check all cables. If cables check out, the console should be replaced. If voltage was present, it is time to move to the next test point.
- Place your black meter lead to the Ground test point and the red meter lead to the Tach test point. Have your assistant step onto the steps. Voltage should be present. If no voltage is present, the alternator brushes should be replaced. If voltage was present, it is time to move to the next test point.
- Next component to test for a no resistance issue is the load resistor. You will be testing for .5 -.7 ohms. Place the red meter lead to the white wire connected to the load resistor and the black meter lead to the black wire. If the proper value is not found when the load resistor is tested, it should be replaced.
You have now tested the entire electrical circuit. If the problem still exists, you have a mechanical failure or you should verify the results of your testing.
