This can happen where the treadmill doesn’t realize the problem is not there anymore and I get emails from people this has happened to. If you’ve solved the problem and the error code is still showing and you’ve turned the unit off and on, then you have a further problem. This will solve many problems and is always worth trying first. In old treadmills this can often rectify the problem, it could be the unit thinks there is a problem and there isn’t. If the manual is nowhere to be found and you’re not sure of what the problem could be, I would advise you turn off the treadmill for 5 minutes and turn it back on. What to do if you see a treadmill error code Treadmills can last up to 12 years if they’re well looked after and the manual will help you do that. As models become obsolete, brands will often delete the manual from their website. Even if you can only find it online you should print it out as you don’t know how long it will remain online for. This is why it is so important to keep the owners manual of your treadmill. Industries often have standards when there are safety concerns but with treadmills the makers have never got together to standardize the error codes. On one there maybe an incline motor issue while on another it could be a console issue. There is no industry standardĪn E1 or E01 error code on one brand of treadmill may be a totally different problem on another. Unfortunately for many problems a fitness equipment repair technician may be required which will incur a cost so check if your treadmill is under warranty. Rather you’ll be told the exact fault on the screen and the manual will tell you how to solve it. Modern treadmills tend to have full screens like computer monitors and you will not find simple codes on these. The “E” number will signify what the problem is and then you can work out what to do to get it working again. Sometimes it could be that the belt needs lubing or there could be something wrong with the motor. The fact that the treadmill may not work with an error code may be annoying but it maybe necessary to prevent the unit being damaged or danger occurring. Often the treadmill will stop working until this issue is rectified. So if it detects something is wrong you’ll see something like E1 or E2 displayed on the console. Those with old fashioned consoles like dot matrix or LCD displays will often show a simple capital “E” followed by a number. This usually depends on the age of the treadmill. Some treadmills will even spell out what is wrong on the console meaning you don’t need to use an error code. Some faults can be quite simple to solve and others less so. They do this using error codes which can be translated using the owners manual. The fact that treadmills can self diagnose their faults is fantastic for anyone who has a treadmill.
