What is the possible problem if the Recumbent bike increases its resistance automatically? Hope you can give us some tips on how we can fix it. Thank you.

You'll want to make sure the belt is seated directly in the middle of the pulleys and the ribbing is seated properly in the grooves of the pulley. Not only that, but that there is adequate tension on the belt so it is not moving around. There probably isn't enough tension which in that case you'll have to look at belt tensioner. Make sure the bolts are not loose on the tensioner and that the tensioner is fixed in a position where the belt is held firm in place.
Nice video. So if your exercise equipment is stuck on high resistance, then it's most likely the internal magnet cables are broken. I have a NordicTrack E7 sv, and my resistance is lowest level. The console works, and it registers the resistance working, but the resistance isn't working. I'll have to take it apart and maybe look at the cables, because I would presume if the resistance motor is shot, the console wouldn't be registering the resistance levels, so I'm presuming the motor is spinning, but the cable isn't doing anything. Also, it has a ramp that raises and lowers, where the wheels ride on, and it's stuck at 15%.
Lots going on there. Typically max resisistance constant while changing numerical values in console is usually the internal brake cables. hydrafitnessparts.com/products/octane-elliptical-eddy-current-internal-magnetic-brake-cable-pair-104763-001?ToPasteBoard& Definitely check if any cables are broken or not functioning properly if the resistance motor is working fine. From the sounds of the stuck motor may just be the controller board or maybe the incline motor.. Sometimes if they get "overdriven" they stick at the top. You're going to have to poke around and see what you can see.. Let us know what you find! PS We have another video regarding resistance issues that goes with bikes and ellipticals which may be helpful: ruclips.net/video/ecJMwxd74f4/видео.html
My issue is that resistance does change but at the highest setting it still feels weak. I was wondering if adding more magnets would improve this? I have a Sole E35.
Sounds like an issue with how your external brake cable may be wrapped around your resistance motor cam. We made a video showing how this is properly assembled: ruclips.net/video/ecJMwxd74f4/видео.html Let us know if this helps!
I can't remove the brake wheel (green disk) from the shaft. I tried wd40, I tried putting the nut back to hold the shaft and turning. But I am not strong enough to loosen it off the shaft....
It took us some elbow crease to get it off as well. Good amount of force and pulling, but you want to be careful so as to not damage the drum. It is very flimsy. If anything, we recommend hiring a tech to do the job: www.hydrafitnessexchange.com/technicians
I have a NordicTrack Airglide 14i, and the magnetic resistance is all based on the same principles. My machine is new (but I bought it secondhand, hence no warranty), and the resistance is way to high (I am in good shape and workout routinely). I have adjusted the cable to the lowest setting (pulled back) and loosening the axel nut based on iFIT support's advice. There was some improvement, but it is way too difficult and no fun. Any fix you might have would be appreciated.
No, but that means taking out the magnetic resistor, which is quite an effort but doable for me. Before that, I need to understand what is normal for the 14i. It is not well covered on RUclips or the Nordic Track web site. For example, why is the goal RPM set so low, which is odd?
We would suggest contacting Icon Service. Or try to find a tech that can really look into this issue further. Our video is based on an internal brake cable issue which may or may not be what your going through. Depending on the brake itself, you may be able to peek inside and see if there is any breaks in the internal cables. That's about all we can suggest.

Sir, i need help. I need to purchase these exact internal brake cables.... i cant find it on the website though. But both of mine snapped and i need to replace them both. Pllleease help me, if i cam buy those internal brake cables, i should be able to fix mine. Same exact issue here....
It might have something to do with your external brake cable setup to the resistance motor. Here is a video we did explaining the entire process and how the wrapping of the cable to the resistance motor is supposed to be: ruclips.net/video/ecJMwxd74f4/видео.html Hope this helps!

Can you clarify? Automatically as in you're not pushing any buttons and it automatically raises resistance when pedaling?
Thank you so much!👍👍👍💪💪
greetings from Belgium 😉
Belgium! Wow! Appreciate the comment. No problem! 😁

I have a Elliptical E35. The drive belt is worn out, because it want to go on the side. Any idea why?
You'll want to make sure the belt is seated directly in the middle of the pulleys and the ribbing is seated properly in the grooves of the pulley. Not only that, but that there is adequate tension on the belt so it is not moving around. There probably isn't enough tension which in that case you'll have to look at belt tensioner.

Excellent video, just repaired my JTX Cyclo-5 exercise bike with this very problem. Hardest bit was sourcing replacement cables in the UK.
Glad things worked out for ya!
helped a lot thanks a lot! cheers!
Glad to be of help!

Unfortunately no, but we may in the future provide a video on changing servo motor.

Internal cable this white part im looking for
Are you looking for the internal brake cable itself? What do you mean by white part?
I am floored. My tension is backwards and I have no clue why it's going on like this 🙃
