If any are cut or crimped, replace cable. Be sure cable is connected securely and oriented properly. Small latch on connector should line up and snap into place. Magnets should be in place on pulley. Speed sensor should be aligned with magnet and connected to data cable. Realign sensor if necessary. Replace if there is any damage to the sensor or the connecting wire. Replace batteries and check for proper operation. Check for visual sign that Console is damaged. Replace Console if damaged. All wires in cable should be intact. If any are visibly crimped or cut, replace cable. Be sure cable is connected securely and oriented properly. Reseat all connections. Small latch on connector should line up and snap into place. If magnets move, adjust until they are within the proper range. Replace Servo Motor if not functioning properly. If the above steps do not resolve the problem, contact Customer Care for further assistance. Make sure unit is plugged into a functioning wall outlet. Connection should be secure and undamaged. Replace adapter or connection at unit if either are damaged. All wires in the cable should be intact. If any are cut or crimped, replace cable. Be sure cable is connected securely and oriented properly. Small latch on connector should line up and snap into place. Unplug unit from electrical outlet for 3 minutes. Reconnect to outlet. Magnets should be in place on pulley. Speed sensor should be aligned with magnet and connected to data cable. Realign sensor if necessary. Replace if there is any damage to the sensor or the connecting wire. All wires in cable should be intact. If any are cut or crimped, replace cable.
