Your treadmill is only as good as its warranty.

At some point, all treadmills, after the expiration of the warranty period, require replacement and repair to keep them working well. That’s why your treadmill is only as good as its warranty. Hopefully you’ve kept the manufacturer’s guide, as the Weslo Cadence C44 warranty has a short lifespan. But that’s what you get when you buy a cheap treadmill. However, you should not worry, yet. I’m going to give you some tips for repairing your treadmill yourself.

Tell Tale Signs of Trouble in Treadmill Paradise

Do you smell something burning? Is that smell coming from your treadmill? A burning smell means something is wrong with your engine. Most likely your engine has overheated due to some type of friction. The first thing to do is unplug the treadmill. Open the cover. Once you have opened the platform and readjusted the belt, your problem will have been solved.

If that doesn’t work, you have 2 options:

1) Replace the motor (for $125) or

2) Buy another treadmill. This time, a more expensive one.

Replacing the motor yourself is very easy. Be sure to read the manufacturer’s manual and make sure you purchase the correct replacement motor. Now if your treadmill is cheap junk it can implode and cook to death. In that case, you will have to buy a brand new one.

Does the treadmill take steroids?

If your treadmill gets temperamental, meaning it oscillates between speeds without you touching the controls, dusty speed sensors are often the cause of the oscillation between speeds. That is also an extremely easy problem to solve. Dusting the treadmill regularly, opening it up, and dusting the inside will help keep dust at bay.

Your treadmill takes coffee breaks

If your treadmill takes coffee breaks every time you get on it, that totally defeats the purpose. Do you agree? Alright. Nine out of ten means that her belt is worn or old. If it’s a new treadmill, the manufacturer is obligated to replace it. But you need to make sure your warranty covers it. Still, it’s an easy problem to fix.

Always consult your owner’s manual before doing any repair work. Always remember to unplug your machine first. Get under the hood that is on the deck with a ratchet or screwdriver. Once it’s open, loosen the belt with the screwdriver and slide it gently. Replace it with a new strap the same way you removed it, just reverse it. This will make more sense when you read your owner’s manual.

Importance of treadmill maintenance

Your treadmill needs regular maintenance if you expect to have it around for a long time. If you can’t afford to repair it or don’t have the time, then it’s essential that you do the service yourself. Remember, the most important part of your Weslo Cadence C44 treadmill is the motor, deck, and belt. Take good care of them.
