Trotter 685 Repair

Sorry got my voltages wrong. It is a 220 volt unit not 240 volt.

Thanks,

Hi people,

I've used a 240 volt Trotter 685 treadmill at home for 1.5 years. It
was purchased reconditioned from a bankrupt fitness club. The unit
worked flawlessly until this week.

When powering on, the display shows "err code 08". A Trotter manual
describes "08" as voltage less than 190 V applied to motor for more
than 5 sec. A internet treadmill web page describes it as a power
fault.

Does anyone have suggestions on how to troubleshoot this condition.

Thanks,
Art

The motor is cooked.

First, before you call an expensive electrician, you need to stick a
fork in the socket to make sure you have enough power.

Here it goes Anne, bigger, bigger, bigger, almost to it's full 3"...
