It did help me out I just took off mine and I'm going to replace my new one in a week and I never work on motorcycles I just learned how to do it because of you so thank you
@@CarlosGarcia-cq8cd It was done on the 2002 but it works on any vtx year. If your removing to get a key cut then you do not need the part #. If replacing entirely you'll have to look up info online with make model yr. Hope this helps
Your welcome. Honestly depending on what state you live at prices vary. Took the ignition to the key shop & payed $20 for a new cut key. Then made extra copies at Ace hardware after that.
because they are not oem and i have not found how to hook it up...just ordered a used one cus the new ones are 200+ for oem vs 50 or less for the 4 plug mystery how to connect bs ones.
What was the reason to change the ignition? On my VTX, when I turn the key, it takes a long time for the lights to go on and I can start the engine. Could switching the ignition solve this problem?
Not yet, but I think they should be ok. When I turn on the ignition, sometimes it takes over one minute before I can start the engine and then everything works fine. Sometimes everythings works right away.
Jacob, thank you for watching the video hope it helped you with what you needed. I am aware of what they are called. But I'm also glad you know as well. Thank you again for your time on my page!!

Hey thank you very much
Your very welcome
Is it done the same way on the Yamaha FJR 1300 im having ignition switch issue's on the 06 model
Sorry but no, Try looking up a how to video for your make and model hopefully you can find a video that will help
Question? I’ve ordered a new switch but it came with 5 wires but mine has 4 like yours . Any idea why the new ones have 5 and not the same connected
I am not sure why it has 5 wires, I never had to change mine out. Was it OEM or a knock off??

I removed the ignition because I misplaced the only key I had and needed a copy.
Have you checked all your fuses??
Not yet, but I think they should be ok. When I turn on the ignition, sometimes it takes over one minute before I can start the engine and then everything works fine. Sometimes everythings works right away.
Check and clean your ground connections

Thanks !! That makes sense. Not only does it take a long time for the lights to go on, also starting the engine takes more attempts.@@lamostra6447
Greaat! Thx ..
Thank you.

Ignition switch
@@Murtuzakachglad I can help. The ignition switch once you pull it out just take it to any key shop of your choice and they will make you a copy
@@lamostra6447 my keyhole was drilled in and rendered unusable.
@@Murtuzakach you can shop online thru any (partzilla, motosport etc) with your designated vtx information and the proper part number will come up.
thanks
Your welcome
Where can I find a replacement?
Motosport.com carries OEM parts just type in your make, model & year and it should pop up.
im having to do this because i lost my original key
