    You're right! I had just bought my sole fitness treadmill on April of 2023. It was only 8 months and it suddenly kept tripping the GFCI. I did what you said, which was connecting to the outside GFCI and it didnt trip. Going to home depot to switch my GFCI!

    Ours just started doing this when workout is done and with hitting the STOP button. Does this no matter what outlet we connect it to. We've tried several outlets GFCI and regular. But this just started happening this week and the treadmill is maybe 8 years old. And we do walking workouts, not even running. Husband only does 30 minutes at a slow to moderate walking pace.

    My problem is it's tripping my outlet but my outlet isn't even a GFCI. It's a normal 120V Grounded outlet on the same circuit as other outlets in my house. It's literally the only thing plugged in to that circuit too. Still keeps tripping at only 1.6mph

      Tripping at 1.6 is kinda odd, I would find a way to measure the current its pulling. How old is the unit?

I had to buy 10 gauge extension cords so I can use the outlet right above the garage door opener for the treadmill and run the garage door opener from the outlet immediately next to my treadmill. Works perfectly now except its a little ugly with that thick cord running twice across my wall and ceiling. Whatever. At least it works now. I tested it by turning the speed on maximum while maximizing the incline and even turning the fan on. Ran great for several minutes during the test. 0 problems. In practice I've ran it for 22 minutes at 3.4 mph so far with absolutely no problems.
