motherof2 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Ok I've changed the battery on Yamaha ybr 125 n it still won't run I've checked spark plugs but noticed a red wire coming from ignition towards battery not sure where it goes Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neversaydie Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Im taking a guess that the red wire hanging by the negative battery terminal should be connected to the positive terminal on the battery, but it looks like its been ripped/pulled off and may not now be long enough. Was the bike running before you swapped batteries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator drewpy Posted February 26, 2015 Moderator Share Posted February 26, 2015 none of those wires are standard and looks like they've bypassed the fuse box! you need a multimeter and check what's live, and if there are any continuity on the bare wires Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Airhead Posted February 26, 2015 Moderator Share Posted February 26, 2015 tip a teaspoon or so of petrol into the cylinder, try again with choke on and only a little throttle opening, its encouraging that you have a good spark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
