Hi, I'm a mechanic and am at a loss for a customer's 2021 UT400. This thing only got used for the end of the summer, only has 3.3 hours on it.

So far I've found:

No start - starter switch works, relay in relay/fuse box clicks. Solenoid is operating as it should, no signal to  solenoid to start. Starts and runs when I hard-jump the solenoid.

No F or R lights on dash - N lights up, and goes off when shifted into either gear

No brake lights - tested switch, it works as it should

No turn signals

Parking brake light is on - switch is working correctly, doesn't change status

 

All connectors are secured, no wires look out of place. I have an incredible dislike for HiSun equipment. Every one I've dealt with has been full of gremlins. Has anyone else had any issues like this? Would this be something wrong with the dash? Or the relay/fuse box? or both? I don't want to contact Coleman and have them send a bunch of stuff that won't fix it, especially with how long electronic stuff takes to get these days. The last warranty I did for them was a go-kart that shelled the drive shaft bearings and it took 4 months for them to send us the parts.

Any help or knowledge would be much appreciated!

See if this HISUN manual looks correct for your machine, i don't have any experience with those machines, however i would be looking for a blown fuse, or even possibly a faulty ignition switch not sending the appropriate electrical signals when you turn the key to start.

Thanks. I've completely disassembled the keyswitch. It is a simple 3 post unit, and all contacts are working.

 

The newest issue is now that the F and R lights are working, and P-brake indicator turns off when they are on, but when you use the turn signal, no signal lights, but the P, F, and R will blink out with the turn signal. I'm going to go through connections under the seat again, maybe something came loose. It is starting to act more like a  grounding issue, but I can't find any chassis grounds on this thing. So frustrating.

Solved the problem. One of the connector insulators had slipped back and touched the frame, blowing the F2 fuse in the relay box. When I tested the fuses, all fuses tested good. I decided to go back in and pull all the fuses and re-check them. Found F2 was blown. The first check, I just checked across the fuse as it sat in the box. Of course, with the contact grounding out against the frame, it was showing the fuse was making continuity. So, I inadvertently found the issue and fixed it by undoing all the wire ties, basically. Now to button everything up properly so it doesn't happen again. I really don't like the cable management on these things (or any "chinese" units, for that matter). At least I got it figured out.

 

Thanks again for the manual

Thanks for your hard work and determination to find the problem. My  problem is that when the temperature dips under 50 degrees, my Coleman 550 acts like the battery is dead and no electrical activity at all. The battery is at full charge. It only has 15 hours on it and the same thing happened last winter. Above 50 degrees, starts every time.  Very frustrating needless to say. Question is--- Could a short like that be affected by temperature?

      I want to put a charger/maintainer for my Coleman UT400 for the winter and need to know if it uses a 6v or 12v battery.
      One search online showed a 6v, but another stated 12v..
      I can look at the battery, but after taking the seat out you cannot see the top of the battery without also removing the top plate under the seat and at 8 degrees outside, I'd rather not be out there too long.
      Can anyone verify what volt (6 or 12) the batter is?
      Thanks in advance ...

      Hi all, I own two Axis UTV's. Last year I purchased a 2022 Axis 500. I had a mechanical issue with the shifting forks after only 50 miles. I contacted Axis/Hisun warranty dept. That were very helpful and willing to send out a representative to see if it was a warranty issue that fell under coverage.  Since I live in an area that does not have authorized repair facility within 300 miles. A really nice guy drove all the way from West Virginia which was 4 hours away. He determined that the console would not stay seated in position and while driving it, the console would jump forward and knock it into the wrong gear causing the shift forks to become bent. It was then picked up a few weeks latter to be repaired in Richmond, Virginia. It should arrive home soon.
      Now to my question. After the 2022 Axis 500 was taken for repairs, I bought the 2024 550 Axis. I bought the first one to take my son who is disabled from an extremely rare disorder that requires daily care to get out of the house. There are two things that give him joy, music and going for rides.  That is why I purchased the first one, However because it had bucket seats and the engine was between the two and was too loud even though I deaden the sound and put a quiet muffler on it. 
      I then decided to purchase the Axis 550 for the great updated features and the bench seat, I will be buying the complete enclosure ad on's offered by Hisun. Since it does not come with a heater (Axis 750 does) I was wondering if anyone knows what heater is part of the 750 edition. There was a photo that showed a Firestorm brand, however I can not find what variation it is. If anyone knows what a Inferno heater would be correct for the Axis 550. I would like to install it this Winter to take Justin riding on the farm. Any help would be greatly appreciated.   Brent

      Hi I'm about to order parts to do a bunch of work on my Massimo. Does anyone know if there's a difference in the top end kit {piston, Cylinder, Rings, Gaskets, Piston Pin} if it has a carb or EFI? I'm EFI and I think some came with a carb so I thought i'd ask before making a mistake...
      Thanks Jerr

      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.

      Was using the machine all day to haul wood...no issues until the end...
      When I try to start it, the dash lights come on but starter does not...seems like no power to the starter.
      It is in park, but when I put the brake on to start, it registers N.
      Won't start in neutral either...
      Tried rocking it, did not help...
      Help...
