Battery Though being used regularly, the battery was dead when I went to use the bike. A new battery was purchased from National Gym Supply, but after about a month of regular use, it went dead, too. It seemed like the control panel was staying on for a while after use. Do you think it may be the control panel, the alternator, or something else that could be draining the battery?

Possible causes for a dead battery or battery that doesn't hold charge
1. Battery has lost its ability to hold a charge, (dead battery)
2. Charging system on unit has failed (battery cables, alternator, or alternator control board)
3. Stuck key on the display is causing a constant draw from the battery.
We recommend to visually inspect your machine to make sure no wires are damaged or loose also.
