A bike's resistance system does not respond to level adjustment commands from the console. Which is the most likely cause category?

  • AA faulty reed switch on the flywheel
  • BA failed resistance motor/servo, broken wiring harness, or console communication fault
  • CA loose pedal spindle
  • DRunning belt over-tension

Correct Answer

A failed resistance motor/servo, broken wiring harness, or console communication fault

Explanation

Resistance non-response on a powered resistance bike points to the resistance actuation chain: the console output signal, the wiring harness, or the resistance servo/stepper motor itself. Diagnose each systematically.
