Need more details.  Tranny to Neutral.  Raise both rear wheels on jack stands.  Park brake  disc is on diff drive shaft.  Have assistant rotate any side rear wheel...open diff....opposite rear wheel will turn in reverse direction.  If TRUE, diff is ok.  Try to rotate drive shaft, if park brake locked.....NO GO.  Have seen master cyl hold pressure to FR and RR locking them up....thus the jackstand test.

Lever has stepped rack, button release....problem with release?

Cable stuck in sheath?

Mechanical brake cam/lever stuck on full pad pressure.  Need answers to go forward.

Thanks Ben 98. Took off plate and tried turning the rotor but brake too tight. I then pulled the cotter pin from the cable adjustment end and got the pb pedal to release. This freed up the pb back at the rotor and I can run it without using the parking brake. I think I just need to adjust the cable, but I’ m not sure which way to go with the adjustment nuts. At least I can ride it if I don’t have to park on a hill. Thanks Ben

The cable "pulls" the lever and thus cams the pads together in the calipers.

Reassy with slack in the cable and then adjust (tighter) to no drag at RELEASE and but make sure it will hold on a hill when set before end of pedal travel.

After thought...woods riding can snag a cabe and pull the brake tight.

Ben, thanks again.    Question:  Is there an electrical connection to the pb other than the obvious one with the cable leading to the regular brake?  The pb is supposed to release with the ignition on and stepping on the regular brake.  There are two cables  leading to the regular brake pedal. I am assuming that the cable on the left is the adjustment for the pb. The one one the right is adjustable too, and Am I right in assuming that it leads to an electrical relay, maybe for both the pb release and the brake light switch, or is it just for the brake lights?

      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

      Coleman UT400 rear shock height adjustment
      By mrpro
      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?

      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!
