Need more details.  Tranny to Neutral.  Raise both rear wheels on jack stands.  Park brake  disc is on diff drive shaft.  Have assistant rotate any side rear wheel...open diff....opposite rear wheel will turn in reverse direction.  If TRUE, diff is ok.  Try to rotate drive shaft, if park brake locked.....NO GO.  Have seen master cyl hold pressure to FR and RR locking them up....thus the jackstand test.

Lever has stepped rack, button release....problem with release?

Cable stuck in sheath?

Mechanical brake cam/lever stuck on full pad pressure.  Need answers to go forward.

Thanks Ben 98. Took off plate and tried turning the rotor but brake too tight. I then pulled the cotter pin from the cable adjustment end and got the pb pedal to release. This freed up the pb back at the rotor and I can run it without using the parking brake. I think I just need to adjust the cable, but I’ m not sure which way to go with the adjustment nuts. At least I can ride it if I don’t have to park on a hill. Thanks Ben

The cable "pulls" the lever and thus cams the pads together in the calipers.

Reassy with slack in the cable and then adjust (tighter) to no drag at RELEASE and but make sure it will hold on a hill when set before end of pedal travel.

After thought...woods riding can snag a cabe and pull the brake tight.

Ben, thanks again.    Question:  Is there an electrical connection to the pb other than the obvious one with the cable leading to the regular brake?  The pb is supposed to release with the ignition on and stepping on the regular brake.  There are two cables  leading to the regular brake pedal. I am assuming that the cable on the left is the adjustment for the pb. The one one the right is adjustable too, and Am I right in assuming that it leads to an electrical relay, maybe for both the pb release and the brake light switch, or is it just for the brake lights?

      Making Kioti K9 2400 Quieter Ideas
      By CSM_Retired
      Greetings All,
      I'm looking for the most effective way to quiet the noise inside the cab. The cab virtually sits atop the 24hp diesel engine. It's very loud and so I'm looking for ways to make inside the cab quieter.

      Code Reader for Delphi MT05 Coleman UTV 400 Hisun
      By Homeowner A
      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.

      Want a new work UTV; who and what should I look for?
      By FTG-05
      I want to ditch my Kubota RTV-XG850 and its moronic twitchy throttle design flaw, get rid of the problematic engine and the 40 mph purposely throttled speed.
      So far, I'm looking at the Honda Pioneer 1000 and the Polaris Ranger 1000, both of which have 1000-1500 lb payload bed capacity.
      What other makes and models should I be looking at?
       
      Thanks for the help!

      Snow Blade for Coleman Outfitter 550?
      By Alien10
      I'm thinking of buying a snow blade for my Coleman Outfitter 550 (Hisun with Coleman stickers).
      Has anyone purchased a snow blade that can offer the make and model they bought and any comments, pros  cons etc.?
      Not 100% sure I'm going to buy, as the selection of blades for this model seems a bit thin on line. 
      Thoughts and comments welcomed.
      Thanks in advance.

      2022 Hisun Sector 550 eps. Power steering not working
      By A P
      Hi
      I have a 2022 hisun sector eps 550. 30amp fuse is blown for eps. Checked the motor and it’s fine. Opened up the controller and found a bad diode. Dealer wanted 500$ for the controller. Just posting this in case it helps someone. I couldn’t read numbers from the old one so just took a guess and replaced it with a 100v 3amp diode.
