Sorry for the bad img, I recovered it from 2018 when I bought my DT

Hi. I lost 3 screws and I don't want to buy them from Yamaha original (€€€€€). 2 are from the seat (below the seat) and the other one its the one that goes in the deposit.

The ones from the seat I don't see them. I will post a picture later.
I want to know the dimensions of the screw to buy them in a hardware store. Ty all.

@spookdog said in Kill switch doesn't work:

I thought only electric start bikes had them though

It's a DTX (2005) so yeah, it has electric starter.
Ty for your answers. I hope that this post help someone else. That's the point of forums

@spookdog Yes it does. The problem was the wires that connect into the clutch in the handlebar. I don't know why, and what are those wires, but it cause a problem with the kill switch. I removed them and all its good. Problem solved

No solution works so my DTX is now resting in a workshop. Will refresh after they tell me what is going on.

@spookdog I don't have that... no black-yellow wire... check the photo that I upload. Anyway I will check everything! Ty

@spookdog Next weekend I'll check what you say. Ty!

Hi there. There is a problem with my DTX that is going to make me crazy. One day, kill switch button (red one that power off the bike) failed. I thought that it was dirty and it needed a clean up (it happened before with the hazards lights switch). I dissasembled it and give it a nice clean/sanding but it doesnt work. Just the grey button works (starting button). I bought another one identical from aliexpress bc in Yamaha Parts they wanted to charge me 100€ (??????????) so I bought this one.

The original diagram from the dt kill switch has the 4 colors in the right (pink ones). I painted a pink wire with a little bit of black to differentiate it from the other pink wire (they are identical). The left ones are from the aliexpress switch. I try every combination of wires but everything is the same.
The problem is that red button doesn't work in any condition. It doesn't cut of the bike when is pressed, and the bike can start when the red button is on or its off. Whats the problem ? How can I connect each wire from the aliexpress switch to the wiring? I can't think more solutions. The original switch and the aliexpress switch makes the same error. Can someone help me ? Thanks!!!
PD: sorry for my bad english, trying to improve everyday without the help of google translate haha. If I said something wrong tell me to learn

@calum Thanks! I don't know there but in Spain DTX prices are growing up like magic beans!

@stevie-wonder Hello, good afternoon. I think you have misunderstood me. I bought the bike as it was in the first image and now it is as in the link that I have put below. The bike is already 99% restored (there are always details). I have used almost all OEM because as you have said, cheap is later more expensive, or as they said in UK, u get what u pay for. It is true that there are things from Yamaha OEM that are too expensive for what they are and you have to get them in other ways. I will open a topic about a problem that I have from a non-OEM part that I bought. Thanks you for the warm welcome

Hi everyone. I'm Jaime from Spain and I have a DTX since 2017. I bought her with no license and I started a whole proyect of restauration. The bike came from the coast and it had a bit of rust. It was throw in a garage for a lot of years and it had a generous layer of dust.

With a lot of work, that ugly bike become this.

Thats my story. Hope I learn from y'all, ty.
