Why is my NordicTrack elliptical squeaking and how can I fix it?

A NordicTrack elliptical might be squeaking due to a variety of reasons, such as loose bolts, lack of lubrication, worn-out parts, or misalignment. To fix the squeaking noise, one should first pinpoint the source of the squeak by listening carefully while using the machine. Once located, one can tighten any loose bolts and screws with an appropriate wrench or screwdriver, ensuring all components are secure. It's also vital to regularly lubricate moving parts using a silicone-based grease or spray, as specified by the manufacturer's guidelines. If these measures don't resolve the issue, inspect for any worn parts like bearings or bushings that may need replacement. Lastly, ensure that the elliptical is properly aligned and balanced on the floor to prevent uneven pressure on the frame and joints that could cause noise during operation. If the problem persists after these troubleshooting steps, contacting NordicTrack customer service or a professional repair technician is recommended.
