5. Installation and Setup
5.1 Pre-installation Check
Before purchasing or replacing the controller, it is crucial to ensure compatibility. Please send a clear picture of your old controller to the seller for verification to avoid incompatibility issues.
5.2 Motor Function Test
Ensure your treadmill motor is in normal working order before installing a new controller. You can perform a basic test:
- Remove the motor belt first when testing.
- Use two 5# batteries.
- Connect the batteries to the motor terminals as shown in the photo below.
- Observe if the motor runs. If it does not, the motor may be faulty.

5.3 Controller Variants and Connections
The PCB-ZYXK9-1012-V1.3 controller comes in several variants, primarily differing in the number of pins for the LCD/speed sensor connection and the presence of incline control. Carefully identify your specific model and connection requirements.






5.4 General Installation Steps
- Disconnect Power: Ensure the treadmill is unplugged from the power outlet.
- Access Controller: Locate and open the motor cover to access the existing controller board.
- Document Connections: Take clear photos of all existing wiring connections before disconnecting anything. This will serve as a reference for the new installation.
- Remove Old Controller: Carefully disconnect all wires and mounting screws from the old controller.
- Install New Controller: Mount the new PCB-ZYXK9-1012-V1.3 controller in the same position as the old one.
- Connect Wiring: Reconnect all wires to the new controller according to your documented photos. Pay close attention to the main power, motor, console, and any incline motor connections. Ensure the correct pin configuration (4-pin or 5-pin) is used for your treadmill's display/speed sensor.
- Secure Connections: Double-check all connections to ensure they are secure and correctly seated.
- Test: Before closing the motor cover, plug in the treadmill and perform a brief test run to ensure all functions (speed, incline if applicable, display) are working correctly.
- Close Cover: Once confirmed operational, replace the motor cover.
6. Operation
Once installed, the motor controller operates in conjunction with your treadmill's console. Refer to your treadmill's original user manual for specific operating instructions, including starting, stopping, adjusting speed, and using incline functions.
7. Troubleshooting
If your treadmill experiences issues after controller replacement, refer to the following common error codes:
- E01: Communication failure. This may indicate a problem with the communication between the console and the controller, or an individual sensor failure.
- E02: Controller failure. If E02 appears, it is recommended to first test the motor to rule out motor issues.
- E03: Sensor fault. A general treadmill will often display E03 a few seconds after starting if there is a sensor fault.
- E04: Generally an over-current fault. This situation often indicates burned components on the controller.
- E08: May indicate a lift motor control fault (incline motor).
For any persistent issues, please contact technical support.
8. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your motor controller:
- Keep the controller area clean and free from dust and debris.
- Avoid exposure to moisture or extreme temperatures.
- Periodically check all wiring connections for tightness and signs of wear.
9. User Tips
- Always verify compatibility with your treadmill's existing motor and console before installation.
- When replacing, carefully note the wiring connections of the old controller to ensure correct installation of the new one.
- If your treadmill has an incline feature, ensure you select a controller variant that supports it.
10. Warranty and Support
