Hi,

I'm having a problem with my Hisun E1 and it's not charging. There is a flashing red light on the charging section of the console and the error code "038.E" on the charger itself (underneath). Does anyone know what the code means or what the problem might be?

Any help would be much appreciated!

This might be the cooling fan not kicking in. It's a rubbish bit of design, right at the front where it can get filled with crud or power-washed. Try spinning the fan with a small screwdriver or stick to make sure nothing's jamming it. I've read that the connections can get corroded, so try disconnecting and reconnecting all the connectors, checking them for corrosion and cleaning if necessary. I had a problem with mine with the fan no coming on and the red light flashing, but it would charge - just very slowly.

The fault code is a fan problem. Firstly check there is no debris stuck in the fan. Dont just poke the fan, if there is debris, then you need to clear it all out, otherwise the fault will just return. The next fault I have dealt with was because the connection block (top left as you look at the charger) was full of mud and dirt. Pull out the mains plug or ensure the charge lead is unplugged. Remove the cover, two torx screws. Pull the cover forward. Dont put anything in the crud yet. The two large wires are attached to the battery. Short them and you will cause some damage. You could disconnect the main battery connections if you are unsure.  So only excavate using a small plastic item, slowly and gently clear the muck out, use an air line with low pressure, a small brush may help. or a plastic ended vacuum cleaner nozzle (Tape a piece of plastic garden hose into the vacuum cleaner nozzle)When all is clear you will see the small wires entering the junction box from the right these are the fan wires. They are polarity conscious. So take a photo or note which wire goes where. Now with a set of long nose pliers pull off the spade terminals, do not pull the wires. I found that the spade terminals were not clean and ended up replacing the female connectors on the leads. The negative was however oxidised, so you have to clean that off. I use  a scotch bright pad or very fine sand paper. You will find this easier to do with the fan out. But thats a bit more work to get the cover off and the fan out. The original connectors were crimped and soldered. I repeated that.  Dont use insulated crimps as the electrical contact may be poor and the oxidisation insufficiently removed. The std crimp is a better all round crimp rather than the insulated which is really a two side squash.   Before you reconnect the fan test it with a 12v supply. (note the polarity again). WIth the connectors off the spade terminals, try and clean them.  A non metallic nail sanding strip/file can be useful. Clean the inside of the plastic cover before  you put it back. Test. hopefully all is good. If not then its a service time with the DeltaQ charger.

The photos show some of the  problems with dirt in the charger.

If it is E013  There is no 3.E01 code, then first thing is to check all of the battery connections, These have m8 bolts  but with 10mm, 13mm and 14mm heads . I have seen all on E1s most do seem to be 13mm heads but a lot of the latest have had the 10mm these are a horrible bolt, and appear to have been painted. I would change these for m8x 20mm stainless screws. Dont just try the cable to see if its loose, actually put a socket on and tighten them. Ideally you should use an insulated Ratchet and socket etc. But if you dont have that , at least lessen any shorting issues by using heat shrink sleeve on the socket and extension and tape up the ratchet. Shorting across batteries can make a real mess, and there is a good chance that you will hurt yourself trying to remove the sparking melting ratchet.

Sorry to bring up a zombie thread but this was very helpful for me. My E1 stopped charging today and I found this thread and determined it to be the same exact cause. Not only was the 30 amp fuse toast, it had melted all the rubber housing around it. I extracted the fuse but I think its so badly burned I couldn't put a fresh fuse in it. I can probably by a new wire and fuse housing and splice it together but my concern is that perhaps the 30 amp fuse is too small for this task? If multiple people's fuse is melting down? Should I try to use a larger fuse?

A fuse is designed to stop the system from drawing too much current, so changing it for a larger one is probably not a good idea! Replace it with an identical one, and hope it doesn't blow again, as that would indicate something else wrong in the charging circuit.

My fuse holder was badly distorted as well, but I was able to remove all the old fuse pieces and replace with a new 30A fuse. After a charge, the fuse was still intact and working properly 

I suspect this problem will reappear. When it does, check the current draw on the starting circuit.

      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!

      Fault Code Troubleshooting "How To"
      By Joe Toup
      Hey Folks
      There are not a lot of good sources out there for troubleshooting and diagnosing ECU problems with the Massimo Buck, Bennche Bighorn, Bennche Cowboy, & Cazador machines that use the Delphi MT05 ECU. They are all basically the same with different badging, so I thought I'd share some info that I found during some searches. I was trying to help someone diagnose and repair a hard starting issue.  The ignition coil was throwing a 0351 code.  I discovered how to read codes without an OBDII code reader.  The following procedures should help you check your fault codes and clear them if needed.
      Fault Code Troubleshooting for Delphi MT05 ECU on the Massimo Buck 400, Bennche Bighorn 400, Bennche Cowboy 400, and Cazador 400
      *NOTE: The MT05 ECU is not really OBD 2 compliant. It is much more similar to an OBDI system.  The MT05 ECU controls either 1 or 2 cylinder engines commonly found on Massimo, Bennche, and Cazador.
      Much of the ECU info was found here:
      https://netcult.ch/elmue/HUD ECU Hacker/Delphi MT05 Manual.pdf
      Delphi EFI System Design
      Delphi EFI employs 5 sensors to monitor engine performance.
      1. Crankshaft Position Sensor
      2. Coolant Temperature Sensor
      3. Oxygen Sensor
      4. Throttle Position Sensor
      5. Manifold Air Pressure/Manifold Air Temperature (MAP/MAT) Sensor
      Delphi EFI employs the following system components.
      1. MT05 Engine Control Unit (ECU)
      2. Fuel Pump
      3. Multec 3.5 Fuel Injector
      4. Idle Speed Control Valve (Idle Stepper Motor)
      5. Multec Ignition Coil
      6. Fuel Vapor Canister Purge Valve
      Using the Digital Dashboard to Decipher EFI Trouble Codes
      In addition to commercially available diagnostic scan tools (Big $$$), you can use the engine warning light of the Siemens dashboard to diagnose most of your EFI problems. The digital dashboard receives signals from the MT05 ECU, and the engine warning light will flash a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) if the ignition key is switched on/off for three cycles.
      When you turn on the ignition, the engine warning light will illuminate, which indicates the EFI system is operational. After the engine is started, the engine warning light will extinguish if the EFI system is working properly. However, if the engine warning light remains illuminated, it indicates the EFI system is not working properly, and there is a system component failure.
      Deciphering Diagnostic Trouble Codes
      To read the diagnostic trouble code (DTC), open and close the ignition key three times in rapid succession, as follows: open/close—open/close—open. At this point the engine warning light will flash a DTC which indicates the fault in the EFI system. Refer to the attached fault code table to identify the corresponding problem.
      The engine warning light will emit a sequence of flashing lights. If the light flashes 10 times, the translated number is 0. If the light flashes one time, the translated number is 1, et cetera.
      For example, if the MAP/MAT sensor is disconnected, or the connector is shorted to ground, the engine warning light will flash in the following manner (This is an example only).
      The engine warning light will flash 10 times: The first number of the DTC is 0
      After an interval of 1.2 seconds, the engine warning light will flash 1 time: The second number of the DTC is 1
      After an interval of 1.2 seconds, the engine warning light will flash 10 times: The third number of the DTC is 0
      After an interval of 1.2 seconds, the engine warning light will flash 7 times: The fourth number of the DTC is 7
      The resulting DTC is P0107.
      NOTE: For the system I was helping to troubleshoot, I suspected an ignition coil failure due to the code that was thrown.  When it was checked, it was flashing:  10, 3, 5, 1.  The 10 represents a 0.  So the actual code was 0351.  After finding the code, the coil wire was checked and discovered loose at the spark plug.  Once it was pushed fully on, the problem was fixed.  Most likely, this problem was created after the owner had pulled the spark plug to check the gap.  The ECU was rebooted using the procedures detailed below with no more codes being thrown.   
      If there are other fault codes, the engine warning light will flash the next code in 3.2 seconds after finishing the first sequence.  After all existing fault codes are flashed, the engine warning light will repeat the fault codes in a loop sequence, until the ignition key is turned off.
      To clear fault codes you either need an OBDII Fault Code reader and a Delphi 6 pin connector adapter cable that you have to order from China and wait 8 weeks…OR....you can simply reboot the ECU using the instructions detailed below.
      Rebooting the ECU
      Perform the following steps to reboot the ECU.
      1. Turn off the ignition for 15 seconds.
      2. Turn the ignition on/off for 5 cycles. Make sure each cycle lasts about ½ second, verifying the start of the fuel pump for each cycle. If the fuel pump doesn't start during any cycle, begin the entire reboot procedure from the beginning.
      3. Turn off the ignition for 15 seconds.
      TPS (throttle position sensor) re-learn procedure after rebooting ECU.
      This should be done after replacing the TPS or the ECU....and it is advisable to check proper idle after rebooting an ECU too.   Source: ECU Hacker (Reworded process slightly to make it a more sensible flow in my mind):    1. Turn the idle screw one full turn clockwise before starting   2. Start the engine, and run at low idle until the engine warms.  Maybe a couple of mins.   3. Idle should be above 1500 rpm. If it isn’t, turn it up to 1700 then shut the engine off.  Do another reboot of ECU.   4. Restart the engine and let it stabilize at 1700 rpm.  Then turn the idle screen down to 1500 rpm and let it stabilize for a few seconds.  Once it stabilizes, set to the final recommended idle speed for your machine. The placard under (or behind) your seat should show idle speed, valve adjustment, spark gap, etc.  Typically the 390 cc engines in the "400" machines run at 1600 rpm idle. 
        5. Shut it down. Wait 10-15 seconds before restarting.  The procedure is now complete.  Final Notes:
      I have included pictures of an OBDII connector and the Delphi 6 pin connector in case anyone wants to go buy stuff off ebay or local parts suppliers and build a connector to use for an OBDII reader. But...you can save money and simply do the same thing with code reading and resetting using the check engine light on your dash.  Some folks prefer to do it with code readers.  
      Hope the information provided helps if anyone ever needs it but cannot find it in repair manuals. I discovered most of this in some motorcycle forums.  The source for the diagrams is here:
      https://netcult.ch/elmue/HUD ECU Hacker/
      Be advised: I am not a service technician.  I do not endorse any manufacturers. I do not get paid to help, nor do I want to.  This is just a hobby of mine.  I enjoy working on things and solving problems.  If you run into a weird problem that stumps you, give me a shout.  I may be able to give you some ideas...or not.  Just know, that troubleshooting thru emails can be challenging.  The more info you can provide, the better.  Otherwise, I will probably ask you a ton of questions.  The good news is, the Delphi system used on these machines is essentially an OBDI and it is very simplistic.  If you are methodical and patient, most of your "problems" can be figured out thru a process of elimination.  Always go for the simple things first before throwing money and sensors at a machine.  
      Take care

      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!
