Common Concept2 equipment repair symptoms
If you're noticing any of these, it's time for a diagnostic.
Resistance issues
The Concept2 rower may not be providing the expected level of resistance. This can manifest as the resistance feeling too light, inconsistent, or completely absent, impacting the workout intensity.
Unusual noises
The machine might start making strange sounds, such as grinding, squeaking, or rattling, during operation. These noises can indicate friction in moving parts or something loose within the mechanism.
Monitor not working
The Performance Monitor on the Concept2 rower may fail to power on, display incorrect data, or freeze. This prevents users from tracking essential workout metrics like distance, pace, and power.
Jerky or uneven motion
The rowing stroke may feel uneven, jerky, or obstructed. This can occur if the chain, rollers, or other internal components are not moving smoothly as intended.
Likely causes
What we typically find when we diagnose these symptoms.
Worn-out parts
Over time, components like the damper, foot straps, seat rollers, or internal drive mechanisms can wear down. This wear can lead to resistance problems, noise, or a less smooth rowing experience.
Lack of lubrication
Improper or infrequent lubrication of the chain and other moving parts can cause friction, leading to increased noise and a less fluid rowing motion. This can also put strain on the drive system.
Electronic issues with monitor
The Performance Monitor can experience issues due to battery problems, loose connections, or internal electronic failures. Software glitches or impact damage can also cause the display to malfunction.
Debris or obstructions
Accumulated dust, dirt, or small objects can interfere with the smooth operation of the chain, rollers, or flywheel. This can cause resistance irregularities or audible noises during use.
Quick checks before you call
Safe checks that may save you a service call. Never open the equipment — visual + power checks only.
- 1
Check monitor batteries
Ensure the Performance Monitor has fresh batteries installed. If the monitor is unresponsive or showing low power, replacing the batteries is a simple first step.
- 2
Inspect seat and rollers
Visually check that the seat rollers are clean and free from debris. Make sure they move smoothly along the monorail without obstruction for a fluid stroke.
- 3
Examine resistance setting
Confirm that the resistance damper is set to your desired level. Sometimes, a change in perceived resistance is simply due to the damper setting being adjusted inadvertently.
- 4
Listen for obvious issues
Pay attention to any unusual sounds during operation. A distinct grinding or clicking sound can sometimes point to a specific area needing attention.
- 5
Ensure stable placement
Verify that the Concept2 rower is placed on a stable, level surface. Uneven flooring can sometimes contribute to wobbling or minor operational noises.

How our repair process works
Five steps from your first call to the warranty receipt. No surprises.
- 1
Inspection
Your technician examines the machine, listens to your description, and notes the model + serial for parts lookup. Visual + audio-based diagnostics first — non-invasive.
- 2
Diagnostics
Targeted tests on the failing system (drive motor, belt, console board, resistance, incline, etc.) to identify the exact root cause. You get a clear explanation, not jargon.
- 3
Fix decision
Up-front estimate before any work begins: cost, parts, and the realistic likelihood of success vs. recommending replacement on an old or uneconomical unit. You decide.
- 4
Operational test
After the repair we run the machine through a full workout cycle on-site — never "it should work now, call us if it doesn't." You sign off when it's actually working.
- 5
Warranty + consultation
Receipt with warranty terms in writing. Plus a quick walkthrough of how to extend the machine's life (belt care, cleaning, calibration) — included free.
