VerifiedYou will need to check the speed sensor for proper alignment, cleanliness and function. it should be located near the front roller or mounted on the motor. It should be within a credit cards width of the magnet or 3 credit cards width of the toothed wheel. You can test these manually by turning the walk belt by hand and look to see if there is a blinking LED light on the motor control board. If there is the sensor is working and if there isn't the sensor needs replaced.

it just started. I had an issue where the belt flipped over on itself and in doing so the circuit breaker blew. When I got the belt back in proper order, and trend the treadmill on, the motor goes on for one second and then off.
