How do you find the model number on an Epic treadmill with no owners manual? The tread stopped running, everything else works. Tried the "reset" switch, no luck.

The error code 070 on a Bowflex TreadClimber typically indicates an issue with the speed sensor or the speed sensor circuit. This error can occur if the speed sensor is not providing the expected feedback to the treadmill's control system. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue:
1. **Inspect Speed Sensor:**
- Locate the speed sensor on your Bowflex TreadClimber. It is usually located near the drive motor.
- Check for any visible damage, loose connections, or misalignment. Ensure that the sensor is properly positioned and the magnet is in place.
2. **Clean Speed Sensor and Magnet:**
- Dust or debris on the speed sensor or magnet can affect its performance. Clean both the speed sensor and the magnet carefully.
- Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe away any dirt or debris.
3. **Check Wiring:**
- Inspect the wiring connected to the speed sensor. Ensure that there are no frayed wires or loose connections.
- Follow the wiring from the speed sensor to the control board, checking for any signs of damage.
4. **Test the Speed Sensor:**
- If you have a multimeter, you can test the speed sensor for continuity and proper resistance. Refer to the treadmill's user manual for the specifications and testing procedures.
5. **Inspect Drive Motor:**
- The drive motor plays a role in the speed control system. Check the drive motor for any issues, and make sure it is running smoothly.
6. **Reposition Magnet:**
- Ensure that the magnet (usually attached to the pulley) is properly positioned near the speed sensor. It should pass by the sensor with each revolution.
7. **Perform a Hard Reset:**
- Turn off the treadmill, unplug it from the power source, and wait for a few minutes.
- Plug it back in, turn it on, and see if the error persists.
8. **Contact Customer Support:**
- If the issue persists after performing the above steps, it's advisable to contact Bowflex customer support or the manufacturer. They may provide further guidance or recommend service options.
Keep in mind that these steps are general suggestions, and the specific procedures may vary based on the model of your Bowflex TreadClimber. Always refer to the user manual for your treadmill for model-specific instructions and troubleshooting steps. If you're unsure or uncomfortable with the troubleshooting process, consider seeking assistance from Bowflex customer support or a qualified technician.

Hello, it seem there could be something jamming the tread mill belt or the transmission gears coult be broken. There is a very good possiblity that the electric motor has goine south, it doesn't work, or seeze up might have to be replaced.

If the fuse(s) are good....did you replace or run down the battery just before the radio quit? If so, the anti-theft system may have disabled the radio. The owners manual may help with this. If not, call a Ford Dealer and ask the Service Manager about it. There are just too many ways of reseting these, and each model and sometimes identical cars have a different reset procedure.

There are a number of possibilities here. First thing to do is make sure the new rear brakes are properly adjusted. If they are too loose they will not engage when you push gently on the pedal and the front brakes will be doing all the work. This could easily cause you to slide. There is a self-adjusting mechanism in the rear but these can become inoperative over time. The brakes can be adjusted manually.
Second, how much tread is on the front tires? As tread wears down the tire becomes less able to handle snow. Does one tire have less tread than the other? Tires have a wear bar built into them so look at the tread and see if you can find a rubber bar that extends across the tread. The more visible it is the less likely there is enough tread to handle snow. It may still be legal to use the tire but save it for summer. If the wear bar is almost flush with the tread,run your hand across it, then that is most likely your problem. Compare the front tires to the back ones, use a coin to see the difference, stick it in the tread groove and note where the tread comes on the coin. The grooves in the tread move snow away and once they are full the tires rides up on the snow instead of staying on the road. If you are unsure stop at a tire shop and get them to help check it out ( 3/32 inches is the minimum I think).
If these are good then you could have a brake caliper starting to go bad. They will seize up and stop working. When that happens the brake pressure transfers to the wheel that works. This will make the car pull to the side that works. So if the back brakes are good and the tires and good enough I would look at replacing the LEFT brake caliper. That would be the one sticking.
If you are travelling on roads that produce a noticable lean inside your car this could also be at least part of the problem. The car would tend to slide with the lean but if the roads appear flat then it's not likely the problem. Roads are "crowned" to be about 2% off level to help water run off but as a rule this shouldn't be the problem.
Hope this helps.

That symbol (tire tread) could mean a low tire pressure. The majority of vehicles today have the low tire pressure warning system, which indicates that one or more of the tires are below the minimum tire pressure. Have the tire pressure checked in each tire. As for turning the warning light off, some vehicles the light will go out after tires are inflated properly. Have them check the owner's manual for resetting warning light. Please inform me as to whether or not it was the tires...thanks.

I finally found the solution. It is actually detailed in the owner's manual but you really have to hunt for it. Look at page 450/451.

Step 1: Switch the display to the trip meter A with the engine running.

Step 2: Turn the engine off (but don't turn the key all the way to where you can remove it from the ignition).

Step 3: While pressing the trip meter reset button, turn the key to IGNITION ON (but don't start the engine). Continue to press and hold the trip meter reset button until the trip meter displays "000000".

there is a fuel pump turn off switch installed on ford. when you lost the tread this was activated. the location will be noted in your owners manual if you have one. usually installed in the rear (trunk area) or front of car drivers side near fuse panel, or passenger side it is a little red button, all you have to do is push it in to reset the switch.

Please check your owners manual for the location of the 10 amp fuse for the radio. On some models you have to reset the security feature on the radio/CD player for it to work.

The info below has been stated to work on a no go radio. I have not confirmed this procedure.

Remove the lower fuse box cover, with the power off, removed the 10 Amp fuse for the "Radio." the fuse may be good. Fuses are diagrammed in the owner's manual. With the fuse removed, start the car, turn the car off, replace the fuse and turn the key to "ACC" to see if the radio was "Reset."

Would the alarm cause the radio to malfunction? If your Anti Theft lock was activated check your owners manual under radio and check for a 4 number password. Sometimes it is taped to the upper part of the glove box. If you do not have the CODE you will need to take the vehicle to a dealership or a repair center. They use your vehicles vin number get the code.

I had the same problem after replacing the battery on my Montero. I bought mine used but luckly the pervious owner had written the 4 digit number down in the owners manual. After finding the number, I had to enter it into the radio by using the station preset buttons. If you can't find or don't have it in the owners manual. You will have to get the model and serial numbers off the radio and contact Mitsubishi or another source to obtain the correct code to reset the radio.
