Kill switch question

[dirtstalker]

The kill switch on my warrior has started acting up. I can start the bike with it in either the on or off position, and when it's running I can't kill the bike by switching to the off position, just by turning the key off. Any suggestion on what to do or what to check?

You either have a short somewhere, or your switch is broken itsself. Trace wires.

you can just turn your key off, that is how I turn my warrior off. I never use the kill switch

It's more of a safety issue there not having a kill switch.

Yea, I like havin the kill switch. I took the switch apart and cleaned the contacts. Switch shuts it off now. But now the bike want start with the push button. It'll crank over fine but won't start. I pulled it and bump started it but it still runs like crap at the moment. Shut it off and it won't start with button. What now???

Battery?

Actually the last question on this FAQ: http://www.yfm350.com/forums/showthread.php?t=27879

Refers to a starter clutch.

I've finally got it to start with the starter button. But it's still running like crap.
