my 08 ybr 125 starts when it wants to !

[Guest]

hello can someone help me ?my ybr starts when it wants to! it turns over but won't start then the orange engine management light comes on its almost like no fuel is getting through then i turn off the ignition turn it back on and it starts I'm confused could it be a blocked jet ? It looks like a trip to the mechanics for me unless anyone has any ideas on how i can fix it myself .

check the wiring to the ignition barrell is the first thing i would do

[Guest]

would it stil turn over if that was the problem though ?

[Stu]

could do depends on how its wired up it could all be tied in with the cut off switch some bikes will allow it to turn over with the cut off switched flicked to off but not start!!

whats the mileage on the bike? and when was it last serviced?

[Guest]

ah ok so should i look for a broken wire or bad connection ? The mileage is about 5000 and i put new plug , oil and air filter in last week which was just after i first had the problem i thought it may have been the plug but the problem is stil there

Make sure there in no water in the electronics, as it may be shorting it out. I had the problem for a week or so, got out a heat gun, blasted all my electronics and now it work's fine.

By a cut-off switch do you mean a kill switch Stu?? If so, YBR's don't have one!
