I'm not familiar with that model, but typically the keyswitch connects to the ECU so switching it off shuts off power to the ECU which kills the spark.

Some older small engine type stuff (stuff without a computer) it physically grounds the spark plug wire. Energy prefers the direct path to ground without having to jump the spark gap and the engine dies. This is still how lawnmowers, chainsaws, weed whackers, etc work today.

      2013 Hisun 800 Please Help Wiring
      By Marie
      Hello, we recently got a 2013 Hisun 800 as a little project for my husband and I to work on. Turns out the guys before us loved the mud anyway. We have replaced the stator and now going to do the Rectifier but here is the hold up as seen in the picture. There are tons of wires going to the battery. I cant seem to find anything that shows what wires should, or shouldn't be attached to the battery or where these 2 plugs go. if someone would please take some pics or share knowledge to where they go I would appreciate it greatly.

      Can’t figure out what part I’m missing
      By Grant
      I recently bought an axis 500 and it’s missing a box or something the plug is L shaped I’ve looked through the wiring diagrams and still can’t figure it out. The plug is located right near the battery housing

      SXS No Crank at the Key and No Spark
      By Matthew Smith

       I just picked up this project that I was told would crank, but not start.  This is what I’ve figured out so far….
      I installed a new battery and get all dash lights, head lights, and brake lights on when turning the ignition on.  Fuel pump even turns on.  It does not crank with the key, but would when I jumped the starter solenoid, so I replaced it…..no change.
      Figured I’d check for spark and compression while I was dorking around.  Compression is 150 psi, but there is no spark.  Replaced the spark plug… no change.
      So, is my new starter solenoid bad?  Could it be the brake or gear position switches even though the brakes and neutral lights come on?  Not sure where to go from here.

      Axis 500 4x4 turns over but no spark
      By D MAYNARD
      I have an Axis 500 4x4 UTV that I was given.  It looks like an almost new machine with 39 hrs on it however it was apparently under water from the hurricane . I have no spark at the plug. I have replaced the plug, the plug wire, & the stator so far. Can anyone advise me of what i need to check and or replace to get this thing running? Any advise would be greatly appreciated. 
                                    Thank You,
                                  D Maynard
