@@ANZAC362 If it isn't the issue stated in the video, it may be an external brake cable issue which we have a video on: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5StfqqumZxnnJY We suggest hiring a tech to further diagnose your issue if none of these works. Here's our tech database to find one near you: www.hydrafitnessexchange.com/technicians Hope this helps!

[@hydrafitnessexchange]

Glad to be of help!

Excellent video, just repaired my JTX Cyclo-5 exercise bike with this very problem. Hardest bit was sourcing replacement cables in the UK.

[@hydrafitnessexchange]

Glad things worked out for ya!

[@rudygordon1644]

Video helps out a lot… but I need the sliding mechanism the cables go into. 11:30

[@hydrafitnessexchange]

If we carried that I'd totally send you a link! Unfortunately, we do not. But there are other websites to buy parts that might have it. Fitnessrepairparts.com may have it. Try them out!

I can't remove the brake wheel (green disk) from the shaft. I tried wd40, I tried putting the nut back to hold the shaft and turning. But I am not strong enough to loosen it off the shaft....

[@hydrafitnessexchange]

It took us some elbow crease to get it off as well. Good amount of force and pulling, but you want to be careful so as to not damage the drum. It is very flimsy. If anything, we recommend hiring a tech to do the job: www.hydrafitnessexchange.com/technicians

Do you have a video showing the replacement of the blue servo motor and adjusting the cable on this x8? Thanks

[@hydrafitnessexchange]

Unfortunately no, but we may in the future provide a video on changing servo motor.

[@JohnSmith-rt5yq]

Very helpful. No need for the music, though :)

[@hydrafitnessexchange]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@TimeDrip]

I am floored. My tension is backwards and I have no clue why it's going on like this 🙃

[@hydrafitnessexchange]

It might have something to do with your external brake cable setup to the resistance motor. Here is a video we did explaining the entire process and how the wrapping of the cable to the resistance motor is supposed to be: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5StfqqumZxnnJY Hope this helps!

[@hydrafitnessexchange]

Are you looking for the internal brake cable itself? What do you mean by white part?
