    Why is the electrical stimulation weak on my ETEKCITY TENS Unit Fitness Equipment?

      If you're experiencing weak or nonexistent electrical stimulation, there might be a few reasons. The intensity level could be too low, so try raising it. Also, check your electrode pads; if they're dried out or dirty, wash or replace them with new ones. In case the lead wire is old, worn, or damaged, discontinue use and contact Customer Support.

    What to do if electrical stimulation is uncomfortable using ETEKCITY TENS Unit?
    • K
      Kyle GuzmanAug 4, 2025
      If the electrical stimulation feels uncomfortable, the intensity might be set too high, so try lowering it. Also, check the electrode pad placement; if they're too close together, reposition them at least 2 inches / 5 cm apart. Using pads that are too small can also cause discomfort, so replace them with pads that have a diameter no smaller than 2 inches / 5 cm. Ensure you are following the instructions correctly.

      Jennifer GarciaAug 21, 2025
      If the electrical stimulation is inconsistent, check the wires to make sure they are securely plugged in. Try turning down the intensity and rotating the lead plug in the socket by 90°. If that doesn't work, replace the lead wire.
