How To Fix Elliptical Incline Problems | Precor FIXED!

Feb 20, 2025

If your incline on your Precor Elliptical isn't adjusting, this may solve that issue. Changing the battery will usually solve the issue. The short of it is these types of cardio machines are self generating. That means they generate their own electricity and are independent of any power source. The problem is incline motors, also called actuators, require a lot more electrical energy than the internal generator can provide. So they have an SLA (Sealed Lead Acid Battery) to provide adequate electrical energy in "exciting" the actuators while in operation (incline/stride increased and decreased). Hope this helps!
