Hi, 

I have a Coleman UT400 that is a couple years old (2021), that won't seem to hold a charge. We have replaced the battery several times, and the unit will startup and run for a period of time, then die out. When I attempt to restart, it acts as if the battery is weak. Install a new battery, and it repeats the cycle. 

Do the magnetos go bad on these things? If so, how hard are they to get to and change?
 

Thanks!

It might not be a charging issue. It could be drain on the battery. Put a volt meter on the battery while it's running, if you are getting 13.5V or higher then the battery is being charged. If you are getting less than that i.e. the battery reads 12.5v then you do have a charging problem. I just found a .450ma drain on my axis 700 that is coming from the ECU and it drains my battery in a very short time period. If the battery is charging you'll need a volt meter capable of reading amps. Search youtube for parasitic drain on a battery and there's clear instructions how to find it.

Hey,

We have a 2008 Hisun 700 and it had a similar problem. Would die at the worst times, idled rough, and wouldn't restart. Turned out to be the rectifier/charging unit. Got the part on amazon I believe. Diagnosed it using a pdf from RMSTATOR, they have excellent diagnostic breakdown that really only requires a multimeter. https://rmstator.com/pub/media/pages/static-pages/tests-diagnostic/pdf/electricals-gremlins-20170223-EN.pdf

I went to the rmstator website to see what other charts they might have, but when choosing the rig, they do not show a Hisun or Coleman. What did you choose, or doesn't it matter? I've noticed this on other websites too, where as they never list Hisun or Coleman as a choice.

The one I used and linked above is a generic chart. Unfortunately there is very little information on Hisun... and I guess Coleman machines... Maybe becuase Hisun is a knockoff of the Yamaha Rhino, at least the older Hisuns. For ours I try to get aftermarket Yamaha Rhino parts when I can as usually they are cheaper and more accessible. But I don't think it works that way for the new machines as they aren't really copies anymore... unless they are and I don't know.

      I’ve never been around Coleman Utv machines. Do they have a good reputation, durable dependability. Could you compare them to yamaha rhinos or Polaris ranger
       
      thanks in advance

      I got the fronts adjusted.  I'm trying to raise the ride height in the rear, but my spanner wrench keeps slipping.  Is there an easier better way?  It's like there's too much pressure working against me to be able to twist the height adjusters.  How can I relieve that tension to make them easier to turn?

      Hello, All!  I've decided to replace the traction batteries in my 2018 Sector E1 with a 48V Lithium set. They may be expensive, but I figure the Discovery Dry Cell are, too. I am not looking for the max driving range, as I have never received near the brochured range to begin with, but a good mix of charge/ get work done/ charge is what I am expecting.
      I have settled on the 48V EAGL kit from bigbattery dot com. Each battery pack provides 30Ah. The kit ships with a charger, as well. The packs would be physically connected in parallel (using a busbar) to one another, maintaining the 48V voltage, but together would be able to provide the amp draw the buggy pulls when going up hill or towing a rake (rated 320 max continuous Amps). This is in comparison to the serial connection the eight 6V lead batteries. Each of the EAGL batteries looks to have its own BMS; am I correct in thinking I will have to use their included charger rather than (simply) changing the onboard charger to lithium mode? The chemistry of the pack is LiFe PO4, for what it's worth.  I haven't torn anything apart yet (to diagram), so  I am not sure how the dash will interpret the AMP draw, but the kit I am looking at includes a dash mounted charge indicator.
      If anyone has completed a similar conversion, do you have any tips? Specifically, how did you remove the original batteries, and how did you secure the new ones? I am guessing that almost any change from the stock batteries would involve at least some modifications. Any tips would be appreciated, especially things I may have failed to consider. Thanks!

      I replaced the stator on our Bennche 500 because it was not charging. It ran as long as you kept the battery charged. I replaced the stator now it’s not firing. The only problem I found was a wire in the new stator for the crank position sensor was in the wrong place in the plug. I switched it around but still no fire. Putting a meter on those wires and cranking the motor showed no voltage from the crank position sensor. Something I did or a bad “new “ part? Thanks for any ideas.

      I have a Coleman 550.  Was having problems to start with where it would start and then shut off after a couple tries. It would take off and be good. It then got to a point where it would not start at all. I replaced the fuel injection twice the second time I replaced it I noticed a mouse or something had chewed one of the wires that connect the electrical to the fuel injector. . So two-part question first does anybody have a part number for that wire harness?  Second, any other ideas after I fix the wire harness permanently on what could keep it from starting I have gas flow up to the fuel injector.
