Re: Error code E-2 on Lamar, Ignite 1726 exercise bike
Please follow this steps and fix it. God bless you
1
Check the connections on both ends of the data cable to
ensure they are secure and connected properly. The data cable runs from
the back of the console to the flywheel assembly. The covers over the
flywheel assembly may need to be removed to access the data cable
connection. Verify that there are no bent pins in the cable connection
by detaching the connection and visually verifying all pins are
straight. Reconnect the cable connections, ensuring that the small latch
on the connectors snap into place.
2
Verify that there are no cuts, crimps or other damage to the
cable. If the cable is damaged, replace the cable with a new, undamaged
cable.
3
Replace the console if there are no problems with the cable or the connections.

The 'E2' error code is an error with the motor that controls the cycling resistance. Specifically it's when the bike can't read the current position of the motor.
I fixed mine by removing the side of the bike then removing the motor unit (unscrew and unplug the wire where it clips in at the base of the 'handlebar' post).
This unit has a motor (2 wires) and a position sensor (3 wires).
Using a multimeter I measured the resistance between the two outer pins of the position sensor - they read 5k ohm (correct).
Between either side pin and the centre pin the resistance should vary from 0-5k depending on the position. On mine there was no connection at all (very high resistance).
I unscrewed the motor unit (carefully photographing the cogs just in case I dropped them out). I then removed the large cog that's attached to the position sensor. I could then freely twist the position sensor which I did by hand. After doing this a few times I measured the centre pin resistance and got a good reading.
Reassemble the unit (checking that all the positions match with when you took it apart). I refitted to the bike and the error message has gone and adjustment now works.
If this didn't work you would need to find a suitable sized 5k linear rotary potentiometer with right physical dimensions to replace the dodgy one.
It took about 1.5 hours
Be gentle with the wires, they are not great quality and are easy to snap which I did with the power connector wires at the back of the bike.
