It'll take a call to customer service, waiting for a part, and then some handy work to make up for their poor quality control.

I only use mine for a couple hours while riding my bicycle. Check the instructions for the duration of time it is suppose to last. If you are experiencing less than normal operating time, you should be able to replace it.

My bike is doing the same thing. I even followed the steps in the troubleshooting guide to try to fix the problem. I suppose the next step is to contact the manufacturer.

Would suggest contacting Schwinn directly -- when we did for another type of problem, they were very helpful and the problem was resolved.

I haven't had to deal with that issue. My bike has been doing great! I would send a request to Schwinn for the information.

I would call the customer care center at nautilus. The number for Customer Care is 800-605-3369 or email them at customerservice@schwinnfitness.com. I called them and they fixed two problem that I had with the bike. One was with the fly wheel, and they sent a service man out, the other was a problem with the brake that needed silicone. They fixed both problems well with no charge.

It would be easier to look at the manual. Go to schwinnfitness.com/manuals I believe they are programs. I have not used them yet but your question has triggered me to find out as well.

I wish I could be of more help, but I have no idea. I know that I can hear things moving in there when I turn the unit off or reduce the resistance or when it turn it on and increase the resistance. Perhaps you are using one of the exercise programs (which I don't use) and the resistance is changing. All this is pure speculation. I have no idea. If it is under warranty (or an extended warranty e.g. American Express), I'd call Schwin and see what Schwin CS has to say. I wish you the best of luck.

I am not sure with the bike model that you have. I hope you received a maintenance manual with the unit. Pls call the company direct. Good luck

Unless you are patient about doing it yourself, I would take it to a bicycle shop. They can replace it and in my area, it would cost less than $15.

Hi Heather, have you searched for any folding bike specialists in your area? I would also suggest taking the part to a local machine shop to see if they can make a replacement.

I received an adapter with the pump, but didn't have to use it with my Schwinn bike, so can give you no input on the adapter.

Here's the installation instructions for the reading rack:http://download.nautilus.com/supportdocs/misc/Schwinn/SCH.AD6.ReadingRack.IG.EN-FRC.pdfHere's the bike manual. Looks like the "console support bar" is what you're looking for. http://download.nautilus.com/supportdocs/AM_OM/Schwinn/SCH_AD6.AM.OM.EN.pdf

I have not experienced this as of yet. One idea I would suggest is going around and tightening all the bolts on the bike. I do this about once a month or so just as a routine and usually will find one or two that have loosened up. Sorry to hear your experiencing this problem, if this does not work I would call the Schwinn customer service number and they maybe able to help you.

Glad to help, not sure how I started but ended up here at a Schwinn page with this URL that has an exhaustive list of products by category. Here is what you need though: http://www.schwinnfitness.com/schwinn_fitness_us/customerservice/manualsen.jsp and don't worry if this link is not up to date, it should at the very least get you to categories of products that are up to date now compared to the link I provided and bookmarked over a year ago. Schwinn changes their site over time, but I just tested the URL I provided and found the category for recumbent bikes and then re-found the manual. In fact just tested it before posting so I know it is very close. Also, I had bookmarked a site or two from their Canada site which I must have been led to by a google search and this works as well: http://www.schwinnfitness.ca/schwinn_fitness_ca/customerservice/manuals.jsp The KEY here is these 2 sites are FREE sources of manuals, so do NOT sucker for one of those sites that sells other companies products because these for profit companies have such a presence when we do our searches now that we forget sometimes that real companies like Schwinn do have Support pages too. And by the way I noticed when I clicked on the download link tonight - the URL was identical to the one I bookmarked in Chrome well over a year ago, and viola I was presented with my Owners Manual in PDF format. So u can try this direct link too and save some steps although I would say the 2 previous URL's are safer bets to ensure you have an exact product and year match. http://download.nautilus.com/supportdocs/AM_OM/Schwinn/SCH.220.MY12.AM-OM.EN.pdf Good luck, md
