Tracker 800


Recommended Posts

I purchased a used 2-year-old Tracker 800 for farm use this spring. It had 109 hours on it and now has about 130. I bought it in particular to ride to the deer stand I have walking difficulties. When you switch the tracker off, after running, you will hear an intermittent high-pitched tone. The tone cycles off and on, for as long as half an hour at times. It is load enough to hear from several feet and definitely loud enough to spook deer. It will make the sound with the unit switched off and the keys out of the unit. It may be as long as 15-20 seconds between the cycling tone. It is very annoying from a hunting perspective.

I am not sure how long it takes but eventually it stops but starts again when you ride the unit again. It is definitely electrical, but I have not checked to see if disconnecting the battery cables will stop the cycle. I have no issue with the battery discharging to a point the unit wont crank. Opening of rifle season was today and I think I had a deer blowing at the sound this morning.

Any ideas?

I've got a 2020 we bought new and it's done that same thing since the day we bought it. It seems to be the power steering. Not sure why it does it but I'll walk outside by it an hour or so later and it will still be whirring on and off. At first I kept thinking it would kill thw battery but we never had any issues. I deer hunt and drive near my stand but I am young and able to walk a long distance. I could definitely see it being a deal breaker if I were older or had trouble walking and had to park close to my stand.

The original owner got rid of it with 106 hrs on it and bought a new unit. He hunts and I am beginning to think this is why he got rid of it....

Can you narrow down the noise from where it's coming from? The power steering motor is under the dash, cooling fan is up front. I have a 2021 and haven't heard any noise but that doesn't mean it won't happen. Is there any accessories that was added?

I will check closer, but my sound seems to be coming from nearer the bed of the unit. OO did add some turn signals that would connect under the hood.

      My 2018 Hisun sector crew engine cut off after about 15 minutes run. There is no indicator of what is wrong, no error code just die and won't restart until it cool down. I notice that the fan is not running but the temp indicator is on low temp, no overheat indicator. I checked the radiator fluid, it is cool to touch.
      Cooling fans are working, I can hear it running once awhile if I can get the engine warm up enough.  Thank you for all the help.

      Mine is overheated/burned/melt at connection with its wire connector, parts are ordered to replace both them.  This seems to be a common issue, and some of you already replaced it. I right now just connect the wires, so the fan runs  all the time whenever the initiation is on, but it's better let fan runs as needed with a working temperature sensor/switch. 
      Question: Does some coolant come out by removing the switch/sensor from radiator?  Or, is the threaded hole all the way inside radiator?   If the answer is yes,  I want to drain or extract  some coolant to make its level below the sensor before replacing it, so I don't make a mess with coolant spilled out 
      Thank you.

      Hello I am new here but have had this machine for about 5 years. I am having issues with it surging and sometimes sounding like a small backfire thru the intake.  When putting in low, high or reverse it will struggle then go full power then struggle. It will only do the small backfire thing while in neutral reving it many times. Once in awhile it will throw a check engine light.  
      Parts replaced/checked:
        I have checked the valve lashing, timing and adjusted. Parts replaced are the coils, spark plugs, injectors, fuel lines, fuel pump, IAC sensor, TPS sensor, throttle cable, speed sensor, primary and secondary clutch and belt.

      I have a 2021 colman 400utv engine will start and idle, as soon as you hit throttle to move engine dies and will only start when you throttle it, let off throttle it dies, I replaced the injector and plug still the same, anyone have any other ideas

      I have a DesertCross 800 that doesn't want to stay in low, it pops out when I let off the gas. No problem with the other gears. What do I need to do?  Thanks.
