How to Repair a Schwinn 418 Console:
-
Remove the screws from the bottom of the Schwinn 418 console. Carefully pry off the top of the console. Remove the screws from the circuit board and take it out. Examine the wires. Most problems with the console come from a lose wire. Lose wires can be fixed with a soldering iron.
-
Find the bad connection. Use the voltmeter to find the delayed circuit. Use the wire stripper to remove insulation fro the wire. Find the bad connection to the board. Use the soldering iron and the wire to reconnect the wire to the board. If it still does not work, it may be necessary to replace the circuit board itself.
-
Find a dealer that sells Schwinn replacement parts. Most dealers sell the entire console rather than just the circuit board. Order the new console and wait for its delivery.
