Have you checked the cable adjustment. When shifter is in neutral, is the neutral light lit on dash. And is the trans actually in neutral. Same question for reverse? How far does the shifter move when trying to go from neutral to forward. I'm sure you are pressing the brake when trying to shift into a forward gear. -
Are you sure you need to replace it? These E1s have so much torque in low range that you can drive with the parking brake on and never even notice the brake being on If the brake light switch works you shouldn't be able to do that (It keeps the drive motor from starting if lit), but the brake switch fails fairly often (I have had 2 fail in the 5 years I have owned mine). If you drive it for a while with the parking brake on (like I have done on multiple occasions), it will quickly wear the pad and the brake will no longer hold. To fix it, Lift the cargo bed and find the parking brake (located just in front of the drive motor on the drive line feeding the front wheels), The adjustment bolt is on the front of the brake. Loosen the 10 mm lock nut on the adjustment bolt and turn the 10 mm bolt inward to adjust the parking brake. I have had to do this multiple times over the years to keep the parking brake working, but have yet to wear the parking brake pad out. If yours is indeed worn out, any Hison dealer should be able to order you parts, or possibly an automotive machine shop can reapply a new brake liner. The brake light switch is on the brake linkage behind the firewall and is kind of a bitch to change because of its inaccessible location. -
Does anyone know how to replace the parking brake for the Sector E1 and where to order the parts? -
Recently, my unit Axis 500 (2020) will only go into reverse and neutral. I am not able to get high or low. The engine itself sounds fine and I do not have other issues on this unit. I change the engine oil but have not yet changed the gear oil. Before this happened I occasionally encountered issue where going from reverse to high gear, it would grind some and i had to reposition to shift into high gear. I also for last couple weeks heard a squeaking sound. I couldn't tell what it was. Was looking for a grease point I missed. The unit has around 70 hours and is kept in the garage. Anyone else encounter this type of scenario? Any suggestions on troubleshooting would be appreciated. Thanks. -

I've seen those advertise on the net. Seen a guy on YT that installed one. He said they work. But like you, I would like to hear from others before I installed. They are kinda expensive. There's a writeup here on how to get into the ECU to read codes and get the engine parameters (parts and software required). From my understanding the ECU also has flash memory that some parameters can be changed and saved. I haven't tried it. If you do let us all know how it goes. Good luck.
