KOJRO Retro innovations | An Easy fix. We fix an E1 error on the Treadmill by replacing electrolytic capacitors. @kojroRI | Uploaded January 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
It’s not all about retro computers. There is no end of things that break down around the house, and sometimes I am lucky and there are some electronics involved. This time it was the Treadmill, although it’s not remotely as much in use as lets say the beer fridge or the TV it do get some heavy use not only by me, but the rest of the family too. This is quite an expensive unit that I bought as an OEM brand that it’s marketed as Sportsmaster, the same mill is sold as among others: RunFit87, Pysun, Taurus and so on.
I used it two days prior to Christmas eve but had let it rest for the holydays. It did not seem to be happy to be left alone, because the motor did not start, and eventually it made an E1 error on the display. This is quite common, and a lot of brands has the same kind of error code when the motor is not starting.
From the start I suspected capacitor faults, and I thought this would be a nice addition to my last video where I went into some details about the lifespan of Electrolytic Caps.
In this video I fix the mill, and even give a tips or two about caps. So it’s not all about retro. Ancient knowledge about electronics can still be used on our basic equipment today.
