Saw this in a few different threads so figured I’d ask here since people seems to know about the NordicTrack stuff. When you press the button the fan beep but does not spin. The other issue is that the fan will run for a few seconds then automatically turn its self off.
This seem to be a common issue with a few of the treadmill models. For this fan issue, is it typically the console/board, the fan motor itself or the wiring/connector?
The auto shutdown after a few seconds makes me to think either the safety cutoff or that the board has pick up a fault.
If it were me, what would be the order of things to check before starting to replace parts?
Seems like the console would be the first place to check for a loose connector.

9 times out of 10 its the connector behind the console. They use these little white JST style plug and the pins back out from vibration. Pop the console off, reseat everything, done.
