My treadmill quits running after about 15 minutes, when I am on it. If O am not on it, it continues to run with no problem.
So far we have replaced the lower board, the upper board, the deck and belt, the motor, the reset switch (twice) and the wiries between lower board and upper board.
what happens is that the power switch remains illuminated, but the reset switch trips, causing the display to go blank, and the belt to stop. Resetting the reset switch works for about 1 minute, then it quits again

How to Identify and Resolve Common Issues ?
We offer a diverse range of insights on identifying and resolving common problems in sports. Our sources encompass academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays shared by seasoned athletes. :
Treadmills require lubrication to limit the amount of friction between the platform and belt. When the friction increases to a certain point, the machine is automatically set to power off. This may be the cause for the machine to stop working suddenly. Try lubricating the belt.
A treadmill that stops running after starting the workout can mean something is wrong with the belt, platform, motor or speed controls. When too much resistance occurs during a run or walk, the treadmill stops running to avoid any damage to the motor.
Treadmill Belt Is Too Loose or Too Tight
If it`s too loose, it`ll likely move away from the roller and cause slippage. An overly tight belt may lead to stalling or an inability to move at all. Plus, the treadmill motor will have to work extra hard to increase the tension and keep the machine running.
The treadmill has a max time limit. Usually it`s 60 minutes. Even if you hit quick start at 60 minutes it will stop the workout.
When the motor and its cooling fans become clogged with dust and hair over time, it starts to overheat and cause a burning smell. To avoid this, you have to clean your motor at least twice a year regularly, especially if you have pets that shed hair or if you leave your treadmill uncovered.
150 minutes of moderate or 75 minutes of intensive aerobic activity per week is suggested to maintain your current weight. Going for a brisk walk or jog on the treadmill 3-4 times a week for 30-45 minutes will be enough to stay healthy and fit.
According to what the manufacturers say, the average life of a treadmill is about 10 years. However, if you take care of your treadmill properly and lubricate the belt regularly, you can make it last longer.
Drive Belt May Be Loose
If you step on the treadmill and its belt stops running but the motor is still running, then you should check out the front roller. If the roller and the pulley also stops, then this is a clear indication that the drive belt is worn out.
Under normal use, you should lubricate the device every three months, or every 130 miles. If you use your treadmill more intensely, check more often to determine if maintenance is necessary. Don`t wait until you hear squeaking or some other sound that would indicate unwanted friction.
Generally, a 20-minute treadmill workout can help you burn the same amount of calories you would in a 50-minute session of continuous training. This is due to the greater afterburn effect of HIIT. Be sure to customize HIIT to meet your fitness goals and incorporate strength training throughout the week.
Heart Health
Walking for 1 hour on the treadmill keeps your blood circulating throughout your body, your joints lubricated, and your mind on point. All of these things result can result in a healthy heart and increased longevity.
Improper belt alignment and tension will not only cause damage to the machine, but it can also affect the way you exercise and may even lead to injury. After adjusting the alignment, be sure to lubricate the treadmill belt to ensure everything moves smoothly and correctly.
Sweat. Breaking a sweat and treadmills go hand-in-hand; however, while it may be a sign of a good workout, sweat can take a toll on your treadmill over time. Perspiration has acidic properties that can do a number on the belt of the treadmill.
The motor is a common source for a burning smell in a treadmill. Over time, the motor can become clogged with dirt, hair and other debris. Unplug the machine and remove the motor cover as instructed in your owner`s manual. Use compressed air and a vacuum to clean around the motor and the fan blades.
Our sweat is comprised of water, salts, and acids that are extremely corrosive. Therefore, sweat can cause rust that damages the metal components of your exercise machines over time.
Avoid Overuse on the Treadmill
Many people use the treadmill to meet health goals, but it`s important to avoid overuse. The risk of Injury typically arises from poor warm-ups and not enough rest. Be sure to build up to higher workloads throughout the session and over time.
Unless you are training for a long distance running competition your treadmill workouts should be no longer than 25 minutes. This is good news for most of us who truly hate cardiovascular based workouts. Here are the reasons why: Your workout can be more intense.
For most people, speeds around 5 mph will be a light jog or run. Most adult men can run around 8 mph on average. Women tend to run around 6.5 mph. However, your average speed on the treadmill will depend on your fitness level, height, weight, age, and several other factors.
Fitness experts even say holding onto the handrails of a treadmill is a bad habit as doing so takes away all the benefits of walking and running. When you do so, you burn fewer number of calories, fail to learn the art of balance, ruin your posture and body alignment.
Your 30 minutes of formal exercise on the treadmill add up to about two miles, or around 4,000 steps. (Though the number of steps can vary depending on your stride and speed, one mile tends to be about 2,000 steps).
Ten minutes on a treadmill is not enough to improve your overall fitness level, help maintain your weight, or burn enough calories to make a dent in a weight-loss plan unless it`s part of an overall exercise program.
To check if your belt is too tight or too loose, you need to lift it up by the sides at the center of the frame. You should be able to lift the belt by approximately 2 or 3 inches. If not, the belt is too tight. If it lifts up considerably more than that mark, then your belt is too loose.
Applying too much lubricant can cause it to leak out the sides and onto the belt and deck and on the floor around your treadmill.
A damaged walking belt, improper belt tension, lack of belt lubricant or a bad drive motor can cause the walking belt to slow down when you step on the belt. Unplug the treadmill, then check the walking belt for damage and replace the belt if it`s torn.

I have a Kohler Condidant 5 Generator that will run as long as you hold the start button in. It dies when you let off. I have a harness for the remote switch but no switch – It also will start the generator when you cross the red and black wire and run as long as you hold them together. There are 3 wires to the main switch and 5 to the remote switch. Does the starter stay engaged the whole time you hold the start switch or does the computer release the starter once it is running? The Generator is producing electricity because I tested it while holding the start button. Some where is a wire that shold tell it to keep running. I have read online many descriptions of the same problem, most are told the board is bad so they replace it and still have the problem. Have not found a solution. Talked to a marine machanic today and he said he fixed his friends generator doing the same thing by running a bypass wire but he couldnt remember exactly what he did it was a long time ago. Can anyone help me. Thank you
ANSWER : The problem is either the ballast resistor or the starter bypass relay. The bypass relay should be part of the starter solenoid. I’m afraid I can’t tell you exactly where the ballast resistor is located. It should be a physically fairly large resistor made of ceramic. It should be retangular roughly 1.5″-3″ long and 3/8″-1/2″ accross with a wire on each end. It could also be a coil of wire mounted on a phenolic board.

Treadmill is stopping after about 1 minute running on it.if my son runs on it it wont stop.
ANSWER : There are a few things that can cause the belt to stop running. First thing to do is check the lubrication and adjust the tension (get a manual from the manufactures website if you don’t have one, it will cover this adjustment). Next, clean the speed sensor wheel with compressed air or a q-tip and apply Paraffin wax under the belt and adjust tension if needed.
