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

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

Thanks,
Art

Same thing, motors and pumps are rated 220 nominal for some reason while
just about everything else is 240v, which is what the line voltage actually
is.
