Treadmill repair help needed

Apr 04, 2006 4 Replies

Hi, My treadmill has some problems with the driver board, probably motor controllers, I need to test it and find what part needs to be replaced. Can anyone help ? Treadmill is a sportsart, on the driver board it's printed: Sports Art 3100DRV



I have pictures of the board I can send.



Thanks


I didn't check anything on the board, I don't know how. I have multimeter but don't know how to locate the bad component on the board.

IME, the most common problems on motor control boards are the power MOSFETs. I'd also check the transistors and semis in the preceding stages. Make sure that your motor is OK otherwise it may take out your controller again.

Post the pictures on your own web space. Alternatively, email them to me and I'll post them on mine.
