Sole F80 Console (2017)

Question

Q: I am thinking of purchasing the Sole F80 Console (2017). Before I do could you help me determine if a bad console is the likely cause of a few keys not working on our F80 treadmill? Is it maybe a cabling issue? The following keys on the console do not work: * Incline #2 * Speed #3, 5 * Incline Decrease * Speed Decrease On the handlebars, the following keys do not work: * Incline Increase * Speed Increase and Decrease

Q: When I put the key in the key slot, the machine doesn’t respond to it and keeps displaying “safety key removed machine stopped please replace the key to operate”. Does that mean that I need to replace the key or do I need to replace the entire console? I also turned off and on the machine too but there were no changes.please advise. If I have to replace the console does that also replace the spot where the key is inserted?

Yes, we have been experiencing static discharge while using the treadmill. I would not mind opening up the console to replace the display board. I searched your website, but I could not find the display board. Can you point me to it?

Accepted Answer

A: No it will not work. There are a few parts left for that year model unfortunately.

I am 99% sure its just a bad display inside the console. If you are uncomfortable replacing the display inside the console then a new console is your best option. Based on past experience, you discharged static to the treadmill at some point while using it?

Accepted Answer

I am 99.9% sure its one of these 2 possibilities. 1) The safety key itself is bad. The coating of the metal part of the key is the primary conductor that completes the circuit for the console to turn on. If the coating is worn, the key will not be able to complete the circuit. 2)The module that the key plugs in on the inside has fallen out of place. You can tell by how easy it is to inserting the key in the hole. If this is the case, you can open the back of the treadmill and replace this module. Both these parts are around $15.
