Bowflex TC5300 Treadmill won't start: is the safety key the problem?
If your Bowflex Treadmill won't start, the safety key could indeed be the issue. Ensure the safety key is properly plugged into the magnetic safety key location on the display. If it is, the magnet itself might be faulty. Try another magnet, like a refrigerator magnet, to see if the treadmill starts. If it does, you'll need to replace the safety key.
How do I check the power switch on my Bowflex TC5300 Treadmill?
To check the power switch on your Bowflex Treadmill, locate the switch at the rear of the unit and ensure it is in the “ON” position. This is a common reason why the treadmill might not be receiving power.
