Precor 9.35 Problem--Please Help!
Precor Error Code 22
Error Code: 22
Manufacturer: Precor
Model: All Models
Error Description:
Error 22, No Motor Pulses at Start Up - Error indicates that the display has sent a command for the drive motor to start, however, the speed sensor has not returned the signal acknowledging that the drive motor has started.
Possible Reason:
- The line of sight between the speed sensor and the speed sensor target is obstructed.
- Badly worn drive motor brushes.
- Incorrect gap between the speed sensor and the speed sensor target.
- Incorrect adjustment of the speed sensor potentiometer (when equipped).
- Inoperative speed sensor.
- Faulty lower PCA.
- Faulty interconnect cable between upper and lower PCA.
- Faulty upper PCA.
Recommended Action:
- Using a static safe vacuum cleaner, carefully vacuum out the drive motor compartment. Be sure to thoroughly clean the area between the speed sensor and the speed sensor target.
- Bady worn drive motor brushes cannot make proper contact with the motor commutator, therefore the drive motor will not start when voltage is applied. Inspect and replace drive motor brushes if necessary.
- Inspect the gap of the speed sensor to the speed sensor target. Proper gap is 3/16" and the speed sensor photo eye should be aimed at the larger portion of the targets wedge shaped section. If unit has a magnetic speed sensor, the gap between the end of the sensor and the flywheel tooth needs to be 3/16".
- Locate the speed sensor potentiometer (when equipped) on the lower PCA. Set the speed sensor potentiometer to mid-range. Start the treadmill and increase speed to 6 mph. Carefully adjust the speed sensor potentiometer until the treadmill is operating the smoothest. Increase the speed to full speed and again adjust the speed sensor potentiometer until the treadmill is operating the smoothest. These two adjustments are typically small and are generally only a matter of fine tuning.
- An inoperative speed sensor will allow the drive motor to start and run briefly before the error appears. If able to access the speed sensor wiring, measure the DC voltage between the speed sensor leads. Two of the leads will always read about 5 VDC. Two will toggle between 0 and 5 VDC as you slowly turn the speed sensor target. If both measurements are not seen, the speed sensor needs replaced. Some units have the speed sensor mounted on the lower PCA and the lower PCA needs replaced.
- Determine if the lower PCA is bad by swapping with a known good lower PCA.
- Determine if the interconnect cable is bad by swapping with a know good cable.
- Determine if the upper PCA is bad by swapping with a know good upper PCA.

Precor EFX 556 cross trainer slow startup
Il existe deux raisons pour lesquelles votre v?lo elliptique Precor EFX 556 d?marre lentement. Tout d'abord, un probl?me ?lectrique, tel qu'un cordon d'alimentation mal branch? ou endommag?, ou m?me une prise d?fectueuse, pourrait survivre. Un condensateur d?fectueux ? l'int?rieur de l'appareil, qui peut causer des retards au moment de la mise sous tension, est une autre explication. Pour r?soudre ces probl?mes, commencez par v?rifier les connexions ?lectriques. Envisagez d'appeler un technicien qualifi? pour diagnostiquer et r?soudre un probl?me ?lectrique ou ?lectronique si le probl?me persiste.
My precor efx556 does not detect pedaling, how can i fix it?
hello there, check if the lift control system is detected the lift is moving in the opposite direction of the issued lift command. This error would happen when the lift was already in motion (typically downward) when a lift command in the opposite direction (lift upward) was issued.
What causes a slow boot up on a Precor EFX 546?
A slow boot up on a Precor EFX 546 elliptical machine can be caused by several factors, including:
- Low battery voltage: If the battery voltage is low, the machine may take longer to boot up. This can be due to a weak or old battery, or a problem with the battery charger.
- Dirty or corroded contacts: Dirt, dust, or corrosion on the battery contacts or other electrical contacts can interfere with the machine's ability to start up quickly.
- Faulty console or display board: If the console or display board is malfunctioning, it may take longer for the machine to boot up or may not boot up at all.
- Loose or damaged cables or connections: Loose or damaged cables or connections can prevent the machine from starting up properly and may cause a slow boot up.
- Outdated software: If the software on the machine is outdated, it may take longer for the machine to boot up or it may not start up at all.
To troubleshoot a slow boot up on a Precor EFX 546, you can try the following steps:
- Check the battery voltage and replace the battery if necessary.
- Clean the contacts on the battery and other electrical components.
- Inspect the cables and connections for damage or looseness.
- Check for any error codes or messages on the console or display board and consult the user manual for troubleshooting steps.
- Check for any available software updates and install them if necessary.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, you may need to contact a professional technician for further assistance.
Precor 556i / AXGE....Problema with the resistance. Can anybody help me?
Hey Fabian, it's possible that the resistance motor or sensors on your wife's Precor 556i/AXGE may need to be recalibrated. Try powering off the machine, unplugging it for a minute, and then plugging it back in to see if that resets the calibration. If the problem persists, you can try recalibrating the machine manually. There should be instructions in the user manual or online. If that doesn't work, then contacting customer service or a certified technician may be necessary. I hope this helps!
Precor 9.45 reset safety switch message wont go away
If you have checked the safety switch on your Precor 9.45 treadmill and everything seems to be intact, and the "reset safety switch" message still won't go away, it's possible that the switch itself is faulty or the console is not receiving the signal from the switch.
You can try cleaning the switch and the area around it, and also check the wires that connect the switch to the console to make sure they are not damaged. If the switch or wires appear to be damaged, they may need to be replaced.
If cleaning and checking the switch and wires doesn't resolve the issue, it's recommended that you contact the manufacturer or a qualified repair technician to further diagnose and fix the problem. They may be able to provide additional troubleshooting steps or suggest other possible solutions.
Precor treadmill making squeaking noise when running fast
Two likely candidates: Belt or tread. Lubricating the tread would be the easiest starting point; but if you're running at 7 or more you've probably already thought of that.
If the cover isn't too difficult to remove, you can expose the drive belt and the squeaking volume change would be an indicator that the drive belt is the problem.
