SOURCE: why does treadmill keep blowing plug fuse as soon

Dear Sir:

Hello, I hope everything is fine, in union with your family.

I will try to help you, inmediately.

INSTRUCTIONS: You must be carefully to do this.

    • 1
Cleanand routinely maintain the running belt. The belt may be worn if the treadmillstops operating or trips the circuit breaker or fuse. Look for any tears in the belt.Test the belt by putting the treadmill at full incline. If it does not shutoff, you may need to replace the belt. You can try lubricating it first, butthe safest fix is simply to replace it.
    • 2
Tightenthe running belt if it is loose. A belt can slip if there is too much friction.Be careful not to tighten the belt too much, though. You should be able to liftthe belt at least 3 inches.
    • 3
Pushthe belt in the direction that it normally turns. Turn off the power before youstart. If the belt is difficult to turn, there is high belt/deck friction.However, if the belt moves freely, that's not the problem.
    • 4
Examinethe roller sleeve to see if it is centered on the running belt. If not, this couldcause the belt to move to one side. Often a common problem with treadmills, youcan try making adjustments yourself, but eventually you may need to replace thesleeve or roller.
    • 5
Stopthe treadmill and immediately unplug the power cord from the outlet if younotice a burning smell. Overheating could be a sign that there is too muchfriction or a short in the wiring. Examine the belt and deck for any signs ofwearing. If they check out alright, inspect the wiring. Replace any damagedparts as needed.
    • 6
Checkto make sure that the power switch is on if you suddenly lose power. If thisisn't the cause of the power loss, unplug the treadmill from the wall outletand individually test the fuses, breakers and switches. Test the wall outletfirst, as a fuse may have blown or a circuit breaker tripped.
    • 7
Allowthe treadmill to run at a speed of 2.5 mph without anyone walking on it if younotice fluctuations in the speed. The speed should be constant. If not, therecould be a problem with the motor.
    • 8
Testthe motor using a fully charged lantern battery. The motor should still operateat slow speed.
    • 9
Replacethe batteries in the panel if it dims. If the batteries aren't the problem,check to see that all the wiring is still intact. Sometimes a wire pulls loose.
Thank you in advance, sincerely. God bless you.
If you need further assistance, please reach me.

My 5.2t Horizon Treadmill turns on, but as soon as I push the start button it blows the fuse to the outlet. I tried re-setting the breaker about 6 times and then I started smelling smoke. I opened the

First of all, never reset a breaker more the once. If it trips twice it's not going to magically, "heal " if you keep resetting it.
Two possibilities. Bad breaker or internal short in the machine.
Replace the breaker with one not tripping and then check out the machine for shorts.
Just switching out parts is a less specific and more costly solution.

Fuse keep blowing out

If it happens when you push start it probably in the high voltage system. Depends on if your microwave has an nverter or a transformer, capacitor, and rectifier. If any of those parts are bad it wil lblow the fuse.as soon as you push start.

My proform 545s keeps blowing fuse. worked a coupla of weeks first time I replaced it , now blows as soon as I turn it on

1) Lube the deck belt use 100% silicones or wax, read your instruction manual
2) Lube the rollers bearing use wd-40
3) Replace fuse and see if is o.k now
4) If the problem persist you must test the tension for drive belt motor, and adjust it according.
5) Test the input voltage motor, see my personal TIPS for motor help and troubleshooting.
6) Use the treadmills directing from the source DO NOT USE any extension power cord!
7) Test again if the problem persist,now you have power supply or control board faulty. see the block diagram.attached.
God bless you

Pro-form 370e crosswalk treadmill when the start button is pushed it starts up then stops immediately.

1)Lube the deck belt, this a problem by lack of maintenance, this produce enough friction and shut down the machine, by protecting the electronic system.
2) Test the input voltage motor, if there are voltage, the motor need repair.
3) Test the output voltage board, for input voltage motor, if there are NOT voltage the board is faulty.

Treadmill electical issue: My Spirit SR275 Programmable treadmill blows the panel electrical fuse for our workout room when I start the belt. I can operate other treadmill control functions without blowing...

A treadmill has a high current draw -- it should be on a dedicated 15 amp-circuit -- if sharing a cricuit, it's not unusual, from time to time, for it to trip a breaker or blow a fuse in the main panel.

15A fuse going out. Replaced 3 with no success, spark on low end of board after about 5 seconds, thenn fuse went.. Unplugged power wires to the lower board, powered up treadmill and the fuse survived. ...

You are going to need a motor controller, or find someone who can repair the one you've got there.
If it blows the fuse immediately on power up, it may require a full wave bridge rectifier replaced on the controller. If it blows when the start button is pushed, it might be a MOSFET or SCR found on the motor controller..
