Default Breaker tripping

We had the same problem with our treadmill and had planned on doing the same thing but talked to my friend Golfingnut about the problem. He changed the breaker and we no longer have the problem. It had to do with a problem with the 15amp ARC breaker. I ordered the new one from Home Depot on line as they did not have the right ones in the store. Check with Golfingnut, I am sure he will be happy to give you the details.
