Kickr Run - Incline not working with paddle / buttons. Calibrate not working - Motor Hot to touch, smells hot

Overall mostly impressed With the treadmill, when it’s working it’s excellent. Currently put 300kms on it now. Mostly no issues.

Ran 10km, shut it down properly and turned off the power. Turned on today and the tilt calibration tilted to one side and with an incline. It was tilted so much that it was to max deflection touching the wall.

I put into tilt calibration mode and it was tilting one direction and not the other, now the tilt function will not work with the paddle or the buttons in calibration mode (5 blue button press on power up)

The tilt motor feels too hot to touch and it smells hot so I’ve turned it off fairly sharpish.

Wahoo support ticket open, has anyone else suffered this? 1 month old treadmill

The belt runs fine for info

Hello there - yes I have experienced exactly this on day 1 of receiving my original RUN. It appears one of the front leg actuators became stuck in the retracted position. I ultimately had to be sent a new treadmill.

I have seen evidence out there that other users have experienced this also. You can read about it and the documentation of my experience to date here:
