Nordic Track Elite 4200 with no belt movement

in Treadmill Problems
I was on the running treadmill and it stopped all of a sudden. Everything works from the main indicator panel, it says the belt is running but it actually isn't. I went into a forum on diagnosing the problem and came across a motor test. I checked the motor with a cordless drill battery. The motor spins great. I looked over the motor control board and I don't see any issues. Is there a way to check the control board or main board ? I don't want to purchase a motor control board and have that not be the solution. Any input would be appreciated on how to check the boards.

Thanks,
Derick

    You can see if the mcb is putting out any dc voltage when you are increasing the speed. Sounds like its a mcb

    i measured 0 Volts, moved the speed up on the main panel. it went up on the panel but no volts. Is this a good indicator the motor control board is bad ?
  • admin-itadmin-it
    Yes, the motor controller is bad.

    I ordered and replaced the board, it worked 15 minutes and then stopped. It will not rotate the belt again, as the original symptom. I did add a cordless drill battery on the motor leads and it turns. Is this still a problem with the MCB ?

    I am still able to move the speed up and down on the control board, which increments up/down but no belt movement. The incline can be adjusted up and down on the control panel and it actually moves up and down.

    To whom it may concern at Treadmill Doctor, Would the control Board be bad that was sent to me if I have the same symptom ?
  • admin-itadmin-it
    Could be possible.
