   1. If NO, replace the breaker switch.
   2. If YES, continue troubleshooting.

3. Measure the AC voltage at the output side of the line filter. Verify that line voltage is present when the breaker switch is turned on.

   • If NO, replace the console power supply.
   • If YES, continue procedure.
2.  Obtain a known good console and communication cable. First reconnect the communications cable from the motor controller "MC" to the console and then the power supply cable. Does the test console power-up without error?
   1. If NO, replace the MC module (IFTIntegrated Footplant Technology: IFT recognize this change in speed when your foot strikes the belt and adjust to match every stride, resulting in a smooth, fluid feel that enhances the workout experience. drive)".
   2. If YES, re-connect the good test communications cable and power supply to the original console. Does the original console power up?.
      • If YES, replace the original Communications cable.
      • If NO, replace the console Upper PCAUpper printed circuit assembly; generally refers to the console. board.

CAUTION: Do not swap a good MC to troubleshoot a suspect bad MC which could damage the good replacement MC. The issues that damaged the original MC may also damage the good swapped MC.
