Hey guys so iv had my trooper for 2 days now haha and have been busy fixing issues with it. had to put a new alternator in it and iv been working on water proofing my fuse boxes. iv mounted the fuse box inside of the pelican case and then use silicone to seal up the holes that i made to feed the wires through the case. its taken a while to get this done as i am new with all of this. here are some pics of what its gonna be like. hope you guys like it, i highly recomend everyone does this and you will never have a problem with moisture. the pelican cases are rated for waterproof for 1 hour at a foot depth. if you are ever under water for more then an hour i feel like you will have bigger issues then a fuse box lol. oh and if your wondering what pelican case to get its model number is 1120. you cant use the rubber that is currently used under your fuse box already. i just used it for a template to drill the holes to mount the pelican case. im having issues uploading pics to here so ill try and make an album.

here is a link for pics of what i have done so far let me know what you think thanks.http://community.webshots.com/album/582496358OUBJHw

The computer is not sealed. I would take it's cover off and put it back on with silicone to seal it. All plug connections need to have die-electric greese put in them too.

      Coleman UT400 shift issues , grinding .
      By Bryan g
      We see a lot of the UT400 with shift problems, not going into gear, popping out of gear, grinding etc. There  is a bulletin Im sure everyone has saw about adjusting shift cable.  That dont always fix it.  I went round n round with coleman  on couple units. We are a Coleman warranty repair center"AFS Small Engine Repair "   I told them shift lever does not have enough travel .  No amount of cable adjustment  will increase travel . I  extended lever with piece on flat  iron by 3/4 of inch .  This gave shifter enough travel to properly engage into gear completely .  Last couple units to come in for this Coleman sent me a modified shift lever, with longer travel . Problem solved! Also , heads up if you get any new unit ,,,go over and check it out,  grease  all zerks, check air filter for being in backwards, check wiring harnesses for rubbing on rotating parts,  brake hose  routing , make sure not touching exhaust .  These are just  few of the more common failures I see .

      New 2021 Tracker 800LE Crew Hot Dash area
      By Sommer Wildes
      TLDR (too long didn't read) in blue for quick scanning
      Hey all! I'm new to the Side-by-side/UTV world. We own a smallish farm and decided to go with the 2021 Tracker 800LE Crew. We like the seating and the ride is smooth. However as a newbie I have some questions that maybe some of you longtime side-by-side/UTV owners can help with. We're still in the "break-in" period and it seems that after 30 min or less of driving the dash area gets super hot. You can feel the heat waves coming off the floorboard by your feet and my phone sitting in the little hole (where a radio might go) felt like I left it in the hot sun for too long. The glovebox was also way too hot. 
       
      So the question is, is this normal, or should I start checking engine coolant and filters? We literal have had it a day. I have read forums and looked up info and can't find anyone mentioning this issue. I just don't want to burn the thing up before we've even put it through it's paces ya know!
       
      Thanks for any help!

      Tach not working on an 800 side by side crew cab
      By KBM
      The gauge cluster has power and works but the tach does not. All fuses are good so I don't know if it is the gauge problem or some other electrical problem. Anyone have any thoughts on what it might be? KBM
