| Resistance knob not functioning correctly. | Brake pad misalignment or wear; cable issue. | Check the brake pad's position and condition. Ensure the resistance cable (if applicable) is properly connected and not frayed. |
| LCD monitor not displaying data. | Loose sensor connection; dead batteries (if applicable). | Verify sensor wires are securely connected to the monitor.
