SOURCE: Candy Eclipse washing machine blows the circuit breaker

It's possible that the current rating of the MCB is too low to run your washing machine PLUS all the devices plugged into the other sockets on the same circuit. If possible, try plugging in the washing machine on a circuit with fewer or no other appliances plugged in. MCB's are much faster tripping than circuit breakers and are rated to trip at the current rating on them. Circuit breakers, may carry a current slightly over the rated current which may be why it never happened before. The permanent solutions (if the overloaded circuit is the problem) would be to install a circuit solely for the washer and dryer or install a MCB with a higher current rating. The latter solution is not practical, however, since an overload on lower power devices may never reach the current rating of the MCB creating a hazardous shock potential.

SOURCE: Heil Max Performance 10 Heat Pump not working

First check to see if you have afloat switch inside the air handler ar underneath the air handler. Its purpose is to shut the outside ac off if the drain stops up. Very common. If this is OK take cover off unit and with screw driver push in the contactor. It is located about the middle of the panel. It has main power at the bottom. If unit comes on you cave a control voltage problem. Meaning something is not allowing 24 volts to the contactor. If your out of Refrigerant the low pressure swich will have it off. Call a service tech. Rusty

SOURCE: How do you reset the microwave power? Is there an

There is an internal cartridge fuse, as well as thermal fuses. It is not recommended that you attempt any internal repairs on a microwave due to the presence of very high voltages and the danger of microwave radiation if not reassembled correctly. Residential microwaves, if not under warrranty, are generally considered disposable. Parts and service are very expensive.

SOURCE: No Power, No LED's. Circuit breaker OK

There is an internal fuse, however to access it the unit must come out. The outer case will need to be removed. The following link will take you to GE's website where you can get installation instructions. The fuse is available at ther parts site, but you can get a new on for less than a dollar at radio Shack. Take the fuse with you.

Proform 9000 trips power as soon as we turn it on. Anyone else had this issue?

Unplug the treadmill from the surge suppressor and plug in a typical house vacuum.

Turn on vacuum. If breaker does not trip from the vacuum then treadmill power supply is likely kaput.

If breaker trips then likely it's not the treadmill. Bypass surge suppressor by plugging vacuum directly into same wall outlet as the suppressor. If breaker again trips, it's not the suppressor and more likely there is some type of circuit overload or other fault in the house branch circuit.

GT40s treadmill. Why doesn't it turn on?

Your treadmill may not be turning on due to a broken or a failed power supply or a broken power cord or a tripped circuit breaker switch a failed circuit breaker switch a bad power switch or wiring failure or a bad motor control board or failed console display screen can stop the treadmill from turning on. If the outlet is not working try to reset the house circuit breaker which is located inside of the fuse box to restore power to the outlet.

My treadmill slows down when using then pops the circuit breaker

you have to much on the circuit, you need to have a circuit put in just for your treadmill. That is why you keep popping the circuit, it not hard to do just look in your panel and see it you have a open slot ,it so go to lowe's and get you some 12-2 with ground and a 10amp breaker, and a outlet box cut a hole in the wall the size of the box and then drill a hole in the floor. Push the wire down and the go under the house and pull it too the panel you will see a pipe with wires running up it , or just use the outlet for the mircrowave .

Why did my treadmill stop abruptly while in use?

Your assumption is correct, if you have a household circuit breaker popping, you have a short or over current situation. If you have too many other things plugged into the same circuit you could be overloading that breaker. Depending on how your home is wired, you could have a few (older homes may have quite a few) outlets feed by a single breaker. If you have used the treadmill in that outlet (with the same items plugged into that circuit), the breaker it's self MIGHT be going bad (popping at too low of current).

For safety, inspect the power cord, for any damage, and be replaced if there is any.

If the power core is undamaged, I would try plugging the treadmill in another circuit. Choose an outlet that was not affected when the breaker popped. It you use an extension cord to get to another outlet, be sure it's rated for enough current. If it still pops the same breaker it's the same circuit, and you need to plug it in somewhere else (probably in another room). If a different breaker pops, then the short in in your treadmill. At this point you will need to know something about electricity to further isolate the short.

Life Fitness 4000 repeatedly blows outlet circuit breaker

If there was a fuse in the treadmill it certainly wouldn't cause your main circuit breaker to blow. It sounds like the motor burnt out and shorted- which is causing your house circuit breaker to blow. There is a chance that the ball caused some other damage that is creating the short but my bet is on a burnt out motor. You would need to disassemble the unit and test for short circuits to verify.

TREADMILL POPS CIRCUIT BREAKER. CIRCUIT BOARD HAS RED LIGHT

Something in the mechanism is bound up from a motor if used to the electrical power supply used for other features---don't keep tripping the breaker or sooner or later you will have smoke.

I am working on Precor 932i treadmill, not having any luck yet. I have found a load resistor ,100 ohm 50 watts burnt out. would this cause the treadmill not to power up?

Dear Sir:I am recommend you to exchange the board. If you do not have ENOUGH experience will be better to buy a new one, or call some tech profesional for to execute this delicate work.
The causes can be various, Maybe you have SHORT circuit in the motors, power supply, see the block diagram.
God bless you

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6Yg5S0WML8

see the step for torubleshooting your problem.
Of course test the breaker or fuse from your house. See if the wire ground is connected to your outlet supply. Do not use any extension cord.Use regulator voltage recommended.

If necesary call some electrician .

After walking for 10 minutes or so, or even sooner when I am jogging, the 921 loses power and trip my house circuit breaker. What needs to be replaced? Guessing it is the power cord as the 921 is 20...

Check your Amps on the circuit that is being tripped. The treadmill needs 15 Amps to run. If you have a 15 Amp circuit that is running the treadmill and other electronics (or lights), the circuit will trip. You may need to replace the circuit with more Amps.

Treadmill will not operate when plugged up.

check the outlet first by plunging in a light to make sure their is power and that the house breaker was not tripped. then plug in the power cord next locate the reset/off circuit breaker on the treadmill frame near the power cord. Switch the circuit breaker to the reset position. Then place safety key on console and the display should light up if not then you may have a lower board problem.
