key and immediately measure the voltage between the
red wire (pin 4) & the white wire (pin 5) of the MC MOTOR connector. If the MC is sup-

Make a note of the voltage and switch the treadmill ON/OFF to OFF
Note
: If the drive motor does not start, the Motor Controller will only apply voltage
for a couple of seconds before it shuts down. Therefore the voltage readings in the
following steps must be taken within the first couple of seconds after the treadmill is
