Treadmill crapped out last week. I'd like to say its because of overuse, but the reality is, I think anyways, the dust and dog hair that collected under the cover that goes over the motor and computor board may have shorted the board itself out. So, even though I had to call the manufacturer several times, once I got the US Assembly phone #, which I guess is parts central for all exerc ise equipment, it was easy.

I kept it covered with a with a dropcloth and vac'd it now and again, but I would have to say its important to clean the motor area where all the electrical stuff is even moreso. I never covered the last one and didn't have a problem. I cover this one and $202.00 later it should work again once the new board comes in the mail.
