I have a 2011 or so Landmaster LM200. I cannot get it to start. I turn the key and nothing happens. The brake switch seems to be working, the ignition switch works. The Coil is new the Voltage Regulator is new and the starter relay is new.
I can connect the terminals on the starter relay and it starts right up and runs fine. I just can't get it to start by turning the key.
I am having a bit of trouble bleeding the brakes, not much fluid comes out at the calipers when I am pumping the brakes, though that an air bubble near the brake switch might make it not sense that the brake pedal is depressed.
I am at a loss, please help!

Hello,
Before I invest $10k+ into a brand new UTV for the farm, I want to get my feet wet with a fixer upper and learn the mechanical side of things. I acquired a 2022 Hisun Axis 500 (Lowes-specific model) from an auction for $500. It has only 200 hours and 120 miles on the engine. It looks like the previous owner used it for ranch work and didn't drive it on trails, deep water/mud, or anything too crazy.
While it runs and moves, it has some problems. It struggles to accelerate up any incline in high and low range and sometimes stalls when I let off of the throttle or change gears. When I apply throttle in neutral, it sounds like it is struggling for fuel/air and pops. When I decelerate, there is a grinding sound coming from the clutch, which I've read to be related to the one way bearing and is semi-common. The last thing I've observed is sometimes the speedometer display sometimes will show a much higher value for a few seconds after barely touching the throttle. Based on the documentation, if a problem is detected from the sensors, the instrument panel display should have an error code rendered on the screen in place of the time, but this isn't happening. Here is a video showing some of these issues (engine is exposed with console removed):

Here is another video of the clutches in action:
I've done some research, but information on this specific unit and sister units is limited. There does seem to be transmission and clutch issues reported. I still need to check into the head gaskets. I don't have the equipment to test compression right now, but I do plan on ordering what is needed soon. I do have an order in place for some cables to read the diagnostics from the computer. There is a shop two hours away from me that works on Hisun products, but I am hoping the problem can be identified and is something within my ability to handle. Below is what I've already investigated. I am leaning towards the primary clutch needing replacement right now.
After getting it home and unloaded, I did the following maintenance/checks to it prior to operating it further:
Changed the engine/clutch oil (and filter) and gear oils using manufacture recommended viscosity Changed the air filter and checked for cracks in the air intake flow. Verified good suction. Cleaned the throttle body Changed the spark plug and verified the gap was within spec (0.6-0.7mm) Changed the coil and coil wire Changed the fuel lines, fuel injector, and verified the fuel pump was outputting the correct initial prime pressure for ignition and continuous pressure after ignition. Also completely emptied the fuel tank and made sure octane 91+ fuel is being used per manufacturer specs. Ran seafoam through system too. Cleaned the spark arrester and verified no cracks or gaps in the exhaust flow Changed out the O2 sensor Checked all wired connections to ensure they were secured and no breaks were visible Checked the belt for tightness and for any signs of wear and tear Verified 4WD and the differential lock function as expected - still hesitates and struggles uphill Verified the fan gears in the shifter are not corroded and working as expected ECU was reset after replacing sensors and fuel-related parts
Thanks!

Hello,
I have a 2019 Landmaster 550 UTV. Its been running good until now. The front axle wont engage. Where I live the temps have been well below freezing. The UTV is stored in unheated garage. And even the bottles of stored windshield washer fluid are frozen solid. So I am thinking that the front axle gear oil might be VERY thick and now allowing it to engage. Off the front diff is a small gauge wire running up to a connector. I put a test lamp to one of the leads and with utv running and 4 wheel switch on there is no voltage. However if I shut it off and have the 4 wheel switch engaged. and the crank it to start again the light gets a signal. for a second or two. I have to jacked up on rear and front and sometime the front will cut in and spin a few revs but the drops off.
Im hoping that someone can explain how the front engages on the axle. I assumed there was a fork or something that was engaged with 12 volts. But this wire is very small .This unit doesn't have a central fuse panel but I believe I have checked all the fuses.
Thanks in advance

Given the current winter we're having, I was looking to add a plow to my L5. I got on the Landmaster site and ALL of the plows are listed as discontinued! I called and they said that they're in-between vendors to make em. Cycle Country usta make em, got bought by Kolpin, yadda, yadda ... can't find one.
Anyone know of or tried a universal plow/mount that'll fit a Landmaster SXS?
Thanks,
