  If there's no display on your Life Gear Exercise Bike's computer console, first, remove the console and check that the wires from it are properly connected to the wires from the handlebar post. Next, check if the batteries are correctly positioned and that the battery springs are making good contact. Finally, the batteries in the console may be dead, so try replacing them with new ones.

  A squeaking noise during use of your Life Gear Exercise Bike often indicates that some bolts are loose. Inspect all bolts and tighten any that you find are not secure.

What to do if the heart rate reading is erratic on Life Gear Exercise Bike?

  Christine HernandezAug 16, 2025
  If you're experiencing an erratic or inconsistent heart rate reading on your Life Gear Exercise Bike, first, ensure that the wire connections for the hand pulse sensors are secure. For a more precise pulse readout, hold the handlebar grip sensors with both hands instead of just one. Avoid gripping the hand pulse sensors too tightly; maintain moderate pressure.
