2016 Honda Pioneer 1000-3 shifting problems


Recommended Posts

After driving my Honda hard for about an hour, it doesn't heat up, but it shows 3 bars on the temp. Then what happens is the orange power steering indicator in the upper left corner on the instrument panel comes on. My steering feels fine, no problems there. Then the speedometer reads zero and never changes no matter how fast i'm driving. No matter if i'm in low or high gear, it does not shift, then I try to shift with the paddles and they don't work. as i'm going along at a steady speed, either in low or high gear, and start going downhill slightly, it starts free wheeling with no engine compression. Then after playing around with it a bit, I put my foot on the accelerator ever so lightly, and it seems to catch, as long as I have a slight bit of pressure on the throttle it acts as normal but still doesn't shift. If I shut it down for an hour it starts right up and runs perfect, shifts perfect. It seems as if after driving it hard for a while, a shift sensor, or something heats up and starts to act up. Anyone know what's going on?

I have the same problem with my pioneer 1000 3 seat . It is in the shop for the fourth time I paid for a new computer into the repair $1500.00 so far and told the dealer you can’t just keep changing parts and charging me . The diagnostic tester keeps saying battery issues I think I will bring it home and try the repair on the ground cables that makes sense. My speedometer will start jumping from 0 to 13 mph back and forth then the check engine lights and power steering lights come on then it is stuck in low until you shut it off and let it cool for ten minutes. Then we are fine .

Mine is doing the exact same thing that yours is doing. I have been using it and haven't had time to fix it. Hopefully I will have time this week to check out the cable grounds, i think that's the problem. Keep me posted on your problem. 'That's sure not right what they're doing to you. It sounds as if it's a process of elimination. I don't blame you for trying to fix it yourself.

I have the same problem. When this happens and only happened twice in the  same terrain on two different years. I was traveling in hilly sandy terrain  it is a 28 km stretch and could not get much road speed. I was also pulling a tub trailer loaded with gear and the sxs also loaded. When this would happen the trans defaulted and would not shift,speedo was inope and light on in the dash .Same as the other reports. i would  disconnect the negative battery post , and then reconnect it. The unit would work work normal for a while and then act up again. When I got off this trail and got on the next section of trail which is wider and less steep of hills I was able to get more road speed. It never acted up again for the rest of the trip. 50km.

      My 2018 Hisun sector crew engine cut off after about 15 minutes run. There is no indicator of what is wrong, no error code just die and won't restart until it cool down. I notice that the fan is not running but the temp indicator is on low temp, no overheat indicator. I checked the radiator fluid, it is cool to touch.
      Cooling fans are working, I can hear it running once awhile if I can get the engine warm up enough.  Thank you for all the help.

      We own a 2020 Kubota RTV-XG-850, with only 400 hours on it and it has been at the dealer 3+ months. We were just informed our engine failed and requires a complete rebuild at only 400 hours! There is a loss of compression in cylinder #1, which is causing backfiring and a loss of power. There is also excess gas in the engine oil. 
      We are just outside of the manufacture's warranty period, and they are serving us a nearly $5000 repair bill, with only a 90 day warranty.

      A member at a different forum had the same issue at 22 hours and fortunately, his RTV is under warranty. He was informed that "short tripping" (as Kubota describes it) causes gasoline to enter into the engine oil, which causes a dilution of engine oil and eventually leads to catastrophic engine failure. This killed our engine in under 400 hours!

      Is anyone else with a 2018-2022 XG-850 running into similar issues?

      Where does an Axis 500 receive power from?  Is there a relay from the ignition switch or is the pump controlled by the ECM? Asking for some folks that are having issues that seem to be a lost ground.

      Does anyone have a had time starting there utv.
      I have a T-Boss 750 and I have had to put 2 starters in and put heavier wire to the starter but it still has a problem starting. it will turn over and than die before it wil turn over again. could it be that there is to much compression that might cause this problem
       
      Thank you
