Seatbelts above 15mph. would probably be a wise choice. Especially off road. I used to have a jeep cj with no doors. It really doesn't take much to lose a passenger, in an off road situation. A lot less than you'd ever believe. Luckily I only lost one. Lesson learned, and it had a happy ending. But wow! It was a scary moment. 

As to defeating the mechanism. I would think that latching it behind your back should work.

Right I was posting this cause the sales people didnt know about it and it can make it seem like it was broken.  Just spreading the information.

Glad you only lost one I bet it was scary

Yes, I was talking, while checking the driver side view mirror. Looked over...gone. just like that. Grassy,  gently rolling hills, about 15mph. actually. No turns, just a gentle bump...gone. 

See the problem is, the grab handle is way up at a full arm's reach away. And there's absolutely nothing else to grab on the way out. We had a nervous laugh about it. He said the tire was coming right at him. But after that day. Seatbelts were mandatory for the passengers. The driver has a steering wheel to hang on to. 

Glad you figured out the seatbelt issue. I hate machines thinking for me. There's always something that makes you need it do what it doesn't want to do.

      Just picked up a Hisun 500 that had shift issues (corroded fan gear) which I fixed. It also didn't seem to be running smoothly then all of a sudden it got worse. It seems to miss on both idle and when pushing the gas pedal to the floor and doesn't seem to be running at full power. I've been working with a local person who is walking me through some steps, but I'd like some input from this group as well. What I've done:
      - drained the fuel tank and replaced it with 93 octane fuel and added heet to help with any water problems.
      - replaced the fuel injector.
      - disconnected the battery (several times) to allow the module to reset.
      - set the valve clearance, both intake and exhaust, within specs ... intake was tight but exhaust seemed fine.
      - replaced the battery.
      - replaced the O2 sensor.
      Nothing has helped. Not sure what the next steps are, but would appreciate any expertise that can be offered here.

      I am going to replace the batteries in my E1. I am not interested in the high cost Lithium or the expensive 6 volt dry batteries.  I am considering four 12 volt deep charge marine batteries. I have a source for 810 amp units for about $100 each.  I have no worries about reprograming the charger because it went out a few years ago and I replaced it with generic golf cart charger. When I decide to do this, I'll keep you posted on the results.

      Is there a code reader available for the Coleman UTV 400?  I tried using the HUD ECU Hacker software and cables/adapters but no luck OBD to delphi 6 pin and KKL VAG as well as ELM327.  Will not connect.  I was able to get it to connect randomly a couple of times, but haven't been able to since.  I was able to clear and read the codes briefly.  I'm aware of the Tiny Scan 301 but it doesn't seem to be readily available.  There's a few out there but they are expensive.
