  If your Schwinn Exercise Bike isn't displaying speed or RPM, check that all wires in the cable are intact and replace the cable if any are cut or crimped. Make sure the cable is securely connected and oriented properly, ensuring the latch lines up. Verify the speed sensor magnet is in place on the flywheel and that the speed sensor assembly is aligned with the magnet and connected to the data cable; realign the sensor if necessary, and replace it if damaged.

  If your Schwinn Exercise Bike operates but the Bluetooth Heart Rate isn't displayed, ensure the device is directly against your skin and the contact area is wet. If the device has replaceable batteries, install new batteries. Try moving the unit away from sources of interference like TVs or microwaves. If the heart rate still doesn't function after these steps, replace the device.
