Why is my Proform treadmill making a loud buzzing noise?

My Proform Crosswalk treadmill is making a loud electrical buzzing sound coming from somewhere in the console, and the deck is at it's highest incline and won't move down. It got this way after a lightning storm interrupted the power i'd forgotten to use a surge suppressor. I took the console off and looked inside and it seems to me the only thing in there that could make a noise like that is the large black circular component. I've tried resetting the machine and recalibrating it, but i haven't been able to find instructions online that work.

Good information, you said enough, a lightening storm does the greatest harm to electronics ever. You probably need the manufacturer to help you. https://www.proform.com

Because you are hearing the lift motor making a noise, it sounds like the gears in the motor are bad. The fix is to replace the lift motor.

SOURCE: Proform 2500 treadmill stuck in incline position

Under the motor shroud their is a instruction mini manual it will have a how to calibrate the incline motor, if that does not fix it then you may have to manually adjust the incline motor and sometimes it will take awhile to realign . If that does not work replacing the motor maybe the only option

My Nordic Track Treadmill A2250 is stuck on the 12% incline position and it wont go back down and I have tried to reset it by turning it off, switching the reset button to off and then on or even unplugging it several times. What would be my next move?

Of course after you did step and the problem persist, you must test the main motor complete, mechanical and electrical trouble.

ProForm Crosswalk 831.297231. The motor hums but does not move the tread.

Question edited for clarity and what the make and model actually is.

This is likely to be the Start / Run Capacitor on the motor. It gives the motor and electrical jolt and ten keeps it running.

How do I adjust the belt on my Proform Crosswalk Gtx? The belt is too far to the left on the rollers. Thank you.

You can adjust the rear roller bolts tighten the left side to make the belt come back to the right. If it will not come back you may have a broken endcap causing the problem

Belt makes noise, like it is scrapping something!

Do you have a three year old in the house?? Our ProForm 795 treadmill started making noise when the belt was rotating. Come to find out, he had hidden a plastic clothes hanger inside where the drive roller spins the belt. That was our scaping noise.
Otherwise, is your belt tensioned correctly? If not, it could be tracking to one side or the other.

I have a 1992 Proform CrossWalk Dual Motion Cross Trainer. Motor still works great. There is rubber covering the roller under the moving piece. It has come off on the right side. Can this be replaced?

Really, I have had my crosswalk for over 20 years. I can't complain. I am passing it on to my son and getting a NEW Proform treadmill. Their longevity has sold me.....
