Using the Diagnostic Program
The EC860 cycle provides a Diagnostic program to help you troubleshoot most problems that might arise. When you first access this program, it automatically tests the operation of the main computer functions. If these functions pass, you can test the operation of the keys and the speed sensor, Hall 1. If any test fails, the EC860 cycle must be serviced. See Getting Service for details.
Note: The speed sensor, Hall 2, is not used on the EC860 cycle.
Accessing the Diagnostic program requires pressing a specific combination of keys on the electronic console. This design helps secure the cycle from unau- thorized access and changes.
To access the Diagnostic program, take the following steps:
1. If the cycle is turned off, turn it ON using the ON/OFF power switch.
