SOURCE: My Cybex 520T is comming up with Error 9 on the Screen
Hi, Error code 9 on your treadmill means the brushes on the motor need replacing. This is an automatic indication that is set for 100 miles of use to prevent damage to the motor. Replace both sets of brushes and this should Fixya!

replace the console, you buy that part individually
SOURCE: If a 20-yr old Cybex drops dead, is replacing the motor an option?
From the look of it you're looking at a minimum of $750 to have a motor retrofitted for it. The company stated they no longer sell replacement parts for models that age. I would say considering the age and expense involved you would be better off comparison shopping and getting a newer model with an extended warranty. See: http://www.treadmilldoctor.com/Products-Services2/Cybex-Treadmill-Motors?sort1desc=F&sort1=Item_ONLINECUSTOMERPRICE
Also, take into consideration the cost of installation/repair you'd have to pay to whomever replaced the part(s) assuming you needed to hire a professional. (In which case they would want to order the part and then there would be their mark up and the cost just climbs...)
For over $700 You can get one heck of an awesome treadmill... all the bells and whistles come with a couple hundred more than that.
If cost is an issue check out the Craig's List and such. There are always a LOT of nice newer models for sale with huge discounts.
I have to say, treadmills are the most popular impulse buy, they're bought with good intentions but most wind up as giant clothes hangers or paperweights haha!
