 I am trying to help my son with a machine he recently bought. A Coleman Outfitters 400 4x4 UTV.(Ihsun 400) The problem is a big one and I'm trying to work through a step at a time. It's a 2014 that had a Kodiak 400 motor and CDI box put in it for some reason but don't know year. There was a fire and someone pulled out and messed up the old wiring harness. He got a new harness for the Utv but now we have to try to figure out how to wire everything together. Any help on wiring the Kodiak to it's own CDI and or into the Utv would be Greatly appreciated. If I get a Diagram for that motors wiring then I can go to work on the harness install for the machine. I do have pictures of some of the #s on the motor, CDI box and of the harness coming from the motor.
I know its asking for a lot to hope someone might be able and willing to help but it would be great if I could get some feed back. Now I have to see about uploading some manuals I have for older Linhai/Manco Atvs that I have.
Thanks

Hello,

 I have a couple of pictures if a picture is better than words. I also have a picture of the wiring that comes out of the motor if that helps with any of this. For what its worth I also put a pic of the CDI box that was installed with the motor.

I can remove these pics when they are no longer doing any good if that helps to save space.

Thank you for your response and time.

That CDI unit was used on '03 & '04 Kodiak 400's.  There should be an engine number stamped in the side of the right crankcase housing right where the rear driveshaft comes out.  What's that number?

Hello wanrep. My son pulled the following number from what he thinks is the location you mentions. The number is; J311E-015031. If that doesn't make sense he took a picture of the spot he got it, let me know if you need that and thanks for your help.

Yep, that's it.  I'm 99.9% sure it's an '04 Kodiak 400 4wd engine.

You'll need the CDI and voltage reg/rect. for the Kodiak.  Maybe a used wiring harness if your connectors or wires are melted.  With the 2 wiring diagrams, it shouldn't be too hard to figure out how to get it going again.

Good luck.

Thank you this should help us out. I'll have to check the voltage reg/rect that is on the machine now. We have what is suppose to be a new wiring harness for the Hisun Utv. Just need to round up the proper diagrams for each and I'll be diving in soon. Thanks again for your time and help.

Hello, sorry I didn't mean to leave you hanging. We do in fact have the CDI box and the Voltage reg/rect from/for the Kodiak 400 4x4. I am soring through the wiring now jut having trouble finding the needed wiring diagram for the Kodiak side. May have to start buying manuals and hope one has a decent diagram of the wiring to the motor. Mostly trying to figure out where/how to supply 12v to the motor and its harness so we can try firing it up, would love to confirm that the motor runs before spending more time on the hookups.

Thanks again for your help,

      1st problem, Does anyone know where I can find a stock carb for my Timberwolf, I have tried two different aftermarket carbs and they both suck. The machine runs great until it gets good and warm, then it keeps stalling unless I feather the throttle. it will even stall while I'm trying to go from 1st to reverse or vise versa. I took it to a buddy of mine who is a bike mechanic for years, and he told me try to find a factory carb. When I look online from dealers it says "NOT AVAILABLE" anyone have any suggestions ?
       
      2nd, The small tab on the rear axle for towing is to short for even pulling my small yard trailer, I can't even turn a little bit and hit hits. I tried making an extension which worked great as far as length, but it bends the tab and then the extension drags the ground. I have an idea of what to do to fix it, but wanted to see if anyone else has had this problem and see how you solved it.

      In search of my first ATV? What are good older 4x4 models?

      Hello All
      I'm kinda new to ATVs. I just bought a 1987 Suzuki quad runner 230 Dual Range. I'm having a problem finding info on it. It's very clean, only 2.800 miles. The front wheels are only 30 in.center to center. I was thinking about adding wheel spacers to give it more stability. I realize the added stress on ball joints and bearings. I'm wondering if there are any other concerns? Any input is greatly appreciated!

      Troubleshooting a no spark issue, was running OK, maybe a little rich, turned it off, now no spark. I've checked/ohmed out the main key switch, the start/stop switch, neutral switch, brake switch - all good. It will crank the starter, but no spark with the starter or when I try the pull start. I've checked all fuses and diodes. Swapped battery. New plug. New coil. Swapped in a used CDI - no help. Traced, removed, cleaned, reattached all grounds. Removed things like my winch from the circuits to be sure a bad relay or something was dragging it down. When testing voltages, the orange wire going from the CDI to the ignition coil shows no/very low voltage-shouldn't it have 12V on it? Sometimes I get a very weak, intermittent glow on my spark tester, but not enough to fire the plug. I've checked continuity on just about all wires in the harness. Checked/cleaned/lubed w dielectric grease- all connections, redid a few that looked old/dirty. I've checked the stator resistances, all good, but have a stator and rectifier ordered anyway, will arrive Sunday. I verified that the rectifier has a voltage output back to charge the battery while cranking - 10.5-11V, low, but expected while starter is engaged. What else can I check as part of troubleshooting? I have a Haines service manual, but the 1999 350 4x4 seems to be an odd model, there isn't an exact electrical diagram for it, but found one for another year that has all the same number of wires and same color wires, so I've referenced that. Any hints, tips or advice would be appreciated! Thanks!

      I have a 2002 Kawasaki Prairie KVF 400 and im trying to figure out the actual float height... i have read 17mm +- 2mm, seen 13mm and 23mm... what is happening is it will start right up, rev a little and all is fine, when it warms and you put a load on it bogs down and sputters. no i don't have a manual
