I installed a Maradyne Mm-a1090002 cab-heater in my Hisun.  It was a fairly simple install with the most difficult part being to find the proper location for the heater body.  It has to be located so that the heater hose, etc is not blocked by OEM air filters, body frame, etc.  On my 750 Sector I determined that by centering the heater body a few inches directly below the gauge cluster worked perfectly.  The 5/8" heater hose comes out just to the right of the air filter tube.

Since the firewall is plastic, I placed a large piece of stainless steel on the outside of the firewall for a backing plate.  I drilled a couple of 1" holes in the plastic firewall for my 5/8" heater hose and spliced them into the upper and lower radiator hoses. I spliced the upper heater hose into the upper radiator hose and the lower heater hose into the lower radiator hose.  No shutoffs, since I figured I could easily install them later if I need them.  I bought 8 ft of 5/8 heater hose and 8 - 1" hose clamps at the auto parts store.  Then I bought 2 pex tubing tees 1" X 3/4" X 1" at the hardware store to splice into the upper/lower 1" radiator hoses.

The electrical is easy by running the black ground wire and red hot wire to the power supply (cigarette lighter) in the center dashboard.  By removing the power supply you won't have to drill large holes in the dash and you have the correct wiring needed to wire the heater switch.  I installed another power supply below the front of the bench seat in the middle.  I did that because it's easy for the driver to access and it was near the battery box for an easy installation.

After I refilled the radiator overflow with anti-freeze, I pulled the Hisun's front wheels up on my trailer with the back wheels on the ground.  I did that so the radiator and overflow bottle were higher than the rest of the cooling system and any trapped air bubbles in the heater core would head for the overflow.   If that doesn't work, let it idle with the upper radiator hose clamped shut (needle nose vise grips) directing all the coolant towards the heater core to speed things up.  Remove the vise grips when the radiator fan turns on and then put them back on when it shuts off two or three times.

I have about $175 invested for parts and heater for the project, and my heat laser reads 190 degrees when the heater is on.

      Hisun Sector e1 Battery replacement: any tips?
      By didgeridoo
      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!

      Looking for part numbers
      By doncaron
      Hello everyone! 
      First of all I would like to thank you for the help with my timing problem, it was the chain. Now I’m looking for the part number for the wet clutch baring.  I’ve been looking for it but my side by side is a 2022 t-boss 550 and it’s not the same as a 2021. Can anyone help me please?
      thank you in advance again.

      Have a new to me 2021 Coleman UT400. Runs great for 15 minutes then dies from a dead battery. It appears my unit is missing the voltage regulator. Can anyone show me a quick picture of where it goes? TIA

      Hisun Sector 550C total electrical failure.
      By todd93
      Hi, all! I. I'm new to the board, hoping someone could help me out! I have a 2020 Hisun Sector 550C that I bought new in 2021. Today, I took some stuff next door to my parents. When I went to leave, I turned on the key, heard the solenoid click, but no lights, no guage activity, no fuel pump, and no starter. 
       
      The battery is good, I checked all the fuses, they are good. Not sure if the relays are good, or even what to look for there. Is it possible that it's maybe a wire? 
      I'm really stumped on this one! Any help would be deeply appreciated! Attached is a pic of the fuse box layout. 
       
      Thanks! 
      Todd
