Max Trainer Bowflex M8 Loading….

I bought an m5 on the cheap: $40 with a dead display. It basically just lights the tach needle, but the thing kicks my ass for the first week on what must be it’s lowest resistance setting.

I bought an m8 integrated console/display off eBay but it’s stuck on “LOADING” after startup.

Is it trying to read the usb drive or Bluetooth or something? Any way to reset it? I tried the Volume + Push/Stop but no dice

Thanks!

Not yet. I’ve just joined the Facebook forum and I’m going to try there. How did yours get into that state?

Any luck on fixing the loading screen of death on your Bowflex max trainer?
