P1000 Jackal's P1000-5

Well just as well get this started off. For those of you that followed along on my Pioneer 500 build, I pretty much bought all my accessories before I even had the machine in hand and within 3 weeks of having it home it was all tricked out like I wanted.

Thanks to @HondaProKevin from Honda of Chattanooga I will pick up a Red Pioneer 1000-5 Deluxe on 12/22 just before Christmas.

Stay tuned going to be a long and expensive 2 months.

Had a blast today on maiden voyage. P1K5D performed beyond my expectations. Nasty weather but still logged 40 miles even with a 2 yr old.

So jealous! Looks like fun.

Can you share some details about the A-arm skids? I'm looking to buy some and I'd like to see some better pics than what they offer on the website.

Also, what do you think about them?

I like them fine they are very well designed and attached easily and sturdy. I bounced them off 40 miles of rocky trails without issue yesterday. The material seems harder or more rigid than other UHMW skids I have seen and handled the main skid is the same way too. I don't have any detailed pics yet but here is a frontal view.

Here is a rear view you can click on the pictures and zoom in. Though you can't tell from this angle the front side of the rear A arm guards angle up quite a bit for additional protection of the A arms.

Thank you @JACKAL

How do you like the hard panel?
I'm thinking the same thing to reduce dust in cab - actually it's tiny mud droplets but they settle everywhere inside.
Does it still work ok for back seat passengers?

The rear hard panel worked just fine with the sliding glass window open you can talk to passengers in the back seats just fine. Can't comment on dust yet has been raining heavily each day since I picked it up on the afternoon of 12/22. But I expect it will be just fine. I like it alot better than the soft rear panel on my P500.

Getting ready to head home to the shop, I am off work until 1/3/16 and have many items waiting on me to install on the P1K5D in the upcoming week. Stay tuned as thing will progress very quickly starting 12/28/15. Will update with detailed pics, first things to do is dual battery install, Bussman relay & fused 10 port power distribution module, Winch and pod lights.

 

[joeymt33]

Can't wait!

I am looking forward to see what location you choose for your Bussman relay. I have a similar setup and have been looking around how others have managed placement. Can I ask what is the size of the hole in the glass windshield for the windshield wiper? I don't see the wiper in your photos but I maybe I just don't see it. I assume you haven't place it yet as you are going with your own power distribution setup.

 

[JACKAL]

I am planning on having a total of twelve rockers divided into two gangs of six per row of which two will be a double port 3.2 amp USB power port with red backlighting giving me (4) total powered USB ports for charging phones, GoPro, GPS, etc. the remaining 10 switches will perform the various electrical functions all through a Cooper Bussman power distribution module, this module has an 6 gauge main Positive power line & 8 gauge Negative grounding line both to the secondary Oddessey 925 Battery, then there is (5) output wires with 15 amp fuses without relays for running the minor stuff like pod lights, horn, etc. There is (5) 35 amp relay lines with 30 amp fuses for each line / relay with a 14 gauge wire to go to the switched power to close the relay and (5) 10 gauge wires coming out of the fused relay to power bigger accessories, Light bars, Stereo, etc.

Here is the power distribution module as received, all prewired and includes all necessary items like heat shrink and butt connectors, etc.
Here is a detail of the top with cover off and underneath detail:

Looking under the hood for a place to mount this PDM there was not a location I liked with the metal standoff attached to the Bussman PDM so I removed the standoff then you have the prewired bundle coming from underneath so that negates a flush mount. Then the light went off that the large black cover that covers the air pre-cleaner and intake tube could house this PDM in a recessed cutout in a very tidy fashion.

OEM under the hood untouched, then black air intake cover removed:


Dropping in the 2nd battery, note the added L connectors on terminals:


Intended location for PDM once cover is on & PDM setting in place of hole to be cut out:

Roughed cutout in black cover for PDM insertion from underneath & 3/4" hole on side for all wiring to exit.


PDM screwed in place with wires pulled through & lid secured in place. All neat and tidy without using up any additional space under the hood.


I will seal around the PDM mounting holes with black RTV silicone and as shown you do not lose any space where you can mount anything else needed. The only other spot big enough (that suited me) with the PDM standoff attached is where I want to mount the Battery Isolator which I will not have until 12/30/15. As viewing the bottom right picture with the cap on the PDM it does interfere with the hood slightly and needs to come down 3/8 of an inch on the left side where the hood lies with the body. Thankfully there is 1" of clearance underneath the PDM cover so a little work with the heat gun will reshape this so it doesn't touch the hood when secured down.

Well time to start making a couple dozen Jumper wires for all my lighted switches, no rest for the wicked.

Thanks so much for the detail Jackal. I think your approach is very bold and creative, I would not have thought of going that route. On one hand, I hate to be wuss here waiting to see how other thinking men solve these issues, but on the other, why not gain by their experiences.
I also want to thank you for the info on the hole size in the glass windshield. I see that there is a, on the cheap, hand manipulated wiper that may fit that hole and it gives me additional options if I buy the glass windshield, at least until I either spring for the Honda model or wait until an after market becomes available.

On the Bussman relay...isn't there 6 fused and 6 relayed circuits? I am thinking of powering all 6 of my lighted switches (which will control the relay circuits) with one or more of the fused circuits. When I first got this PDM I thought it may have been designed so that each fused circuit would power the switches for the relay circuits, but after much tested inquiry on this board, I now understand that low amp power can be jumped switch to switch like the ground, leaving a number of fused circuits for additional low amp devices. I don't know how much power it takes going to a switch to trigger the relay, so I don't really know how many switches I can power with say a 15 amp fused circuit? Lastly, you answered one questions that I have not asked which was where do you all get your jumpers. You make your own. Thanks again.

There are 10 Circuits total all 10 are fused five with 15 amp non relay and five with 30 amp with 35 amp relays.
I do not know how much power draw it takes to "trigger" the relay either but I have seen plenty of pictures where 5-8 switched are all being powered by one 14 gauge wire to "trigger" a relay corresponding to those switches. That being the case I will power all 5 relayed switched from one keyed powered source (Honda black/white wire 15 amp fused by Honda). Yes you make all your jumpers will have pictures of them later today all plugged into a bank or two of switches.

I have the part, don't know where I saw six, 5 is absolutely correct, and after writing this I was reading other posts, I see that all switches can be powered with a single hot jumped so that answers that. So to be sure my head is on straight, while running a second battery with an isolator like this one shown, my idea was to tap the black/white to what is labeled "ignition source" here? Or do I have the whole concept wrong?

To feed the relay and led lights inside the switches only you tap in here as shown: P1000 - Honda Pioneer 1000 - Key On Power. | The Honda Side by Side Club!

All the main power comes from the heavy gauge wire the PDM connects to the 2nd battery with. I will have it all step by step in pictures tomorrow. Only waiting on the isolator and cables to connect the two batteries.

I ended up getting about 1/2 my switches today, enough to play with in setting up the jumper lines for the whole set. What I have pictured below is incomplete (using two 4 switch banks instead of two 6 switch banks*) but serves the purpose for now in demonstrating on setting up the various switches. *Note to self when ordering from Amazon make sure it coming from USA not China or you wait 6 weeks, live n learn

Switch Schematic for SVT switches:



So for the wiring pictured below here is the layout:
RED - Hot wire coming from Honda Black/White ignition keyed accessory wire to the switches power in terminal.
WHITE - Hot wire coming from Honda Brown light switch wire to switched backlit LED's - Switches light up when headlights on.
GREEN - Ground wire from switches to ground.
BLACK - jumper wire from Winch Power ON/OFF to Winch Momentary IN/OUT rocker - A secondary measure of killing power to winch solenoid.


Initial testing, everything lights up perfect:


Well that's it for today, tomorrow will be installing the dual battery wiring kit with isolator, cutting out a temp switch plate from OEM skid plate material, mounting the switches in the switch plate & dash, installing (4)- 18 watt pod lights for front & rear added lighting, and maybe even getting around to getting the GPS installed.

Like the setup. I told you I would be watching you like Santa and it looks like you have been a very busy boy. I went ahead and ordered the PDM and was curious what items you were going to put on the lower 15 amp non-relayed fuses? Something I never thought about when I ordered it but it says in the directions that these items are hot at all times, so I was just curious what you were going to use them for. I'll keep watching.
