How to troubleshoot no power on my Life Fitness Treadmill?

  rasmussencynthiaAug 15, 2025
  If your Life Fitness Treadmill has no power, start by checking the ON/OFF switch to ensure it's in the ON position. Verify the treadmill is plugged into a working 15 amp circuit and inspect the power connection at both the wall outlet and the machine. If the power source is sufficient and the connection is good, but there's still no power, the line cord may be damaged and needs replacement.

  Erratic or absent heart rate readings on your Life Fitness Treadmill can often be resolved by ensuring the belt transmitter electrodes are sufficiently wet and laying flat against the skin. Try wetting the belt transmitter electrodes. Also, ensure the belt transmitter is clean by washing it with mild soap and water. Make sure the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap transmitter is within 3 feet (1 meter) of the heart rate receiver.

Why does the heart rate reading on my Life Fitness Treadmill get lost?
- P
  Pamela HaynesSep 7, 2025
  If the heart rate reading on your Life Fitness Treadmill is initially detected but then lost, it may be due to interference from personal electronic devices like cell phones and portable MP3 players. Try removing these devices or repositioning the treadmill. The equipment may also be too close to other sources of noise such as audio/video equipment, fans, two way radios, and high voltage/high current power lines.
