Hi, there is a service bulletin for this problem.
1) perform a continuity test on the power cord between the earth pin at the plug and any exposed metalwork of the treadmill (say an exposed bolt). If you get a reading of less than 1ω - that is good. If higher than this, try another part of the treadmill or trace the cause.
2) Ensure the Power outlet has a good ground - Your electrician could verify this for you.
The most common problems are static buildup on the Striding belt caused by users wearing polyester and scuffing their feet as they are running. This causes static buildup which gets discharged through the user when they come into contact with the treadmill frame.
Happy hunting

Get back into System test hit enter it will automatically to a check once completed. Then go to Lift motor module Go to manual incline and go to maximum incline then to 0 incline then get out of system test unplug unit for about 30 seconds. Then plug unit in if this does not work the limit or home switch may be the culprit

Take the end caps and motor shroud off visually inspect the frame tension bolts to see if anything is bent. then loosen, ( count how rotation it took to loosen the so when tighten the belt up you won't have to guest at the tension ) the belt and edges of the belt to see if the weave is uneven this cause the belt to travel. If you can tip the treadmill on its side to inspect underneath to see if anything skewed. Take your time and observe the mechanical operation you may have the above a 1/2 a dozen time before you see the problem, other than that anything short of replacing the belt this my recommendation. Good Luck to you
