Why is my Schwinn Exercise Bike not displaying contact heart rate?
- A
  Amanda SmithSep 6, 2025
  If your Schwinn Exercise Bike isn't displaying your heart rate, first ensure the cable is securely connected to the console. Then, check that the cables from the handlebars and to the console are secure and undamaged. Make sure your hands are centered on the HR sensors and kept still with equal pressure. If you have dry or calloused hands, use a conductive electrode cream to improve contact. If these steps don't work, the static handlebar might need to be replaced.

  If the resistance on your Schwinn Fitness Equipment isn't changing, first ensure all wires in the cable are intact, replacing the cable if any are visibly crimped or cut. Next, verify the cable is securely connected and properly oriented, reseating all connections and ensuring the small latch on the connector snaps into place. If the magnets move, adjust them until they are within the proper range; replace the Servo Motor if it's not functioning correctly. Also, check for any visual damage to the Console and replace it if damaged.
