Tatonka82 Posted September 19, 2015 Share #1 Posted September 19, 2015 My starter switch is shot, and I am trying to source a different work one, 1NL-83972-50-00 (right hand side, not the turn signals). No luck on ebay is there someone who has parts from another bike or can suggest someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bongobobny Posted September 19, 2015 Share #2 Posted September 19, 2015 You are talking the red push to start switch, right? I'm surprised no one has a right hand controller for sale on ebay... Sorry I don't have one but I'm sure someone here does, I used to have spares but gave them away a couple of years ago. Did you try to disassemble and repair the switch?

Jayceesfolly Posted September 19, 2015 Share #3 Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) I went on ebay and searched for "Yamaha Venture right hand controls"....and found several used sets of controls. Not sure about the condition of them, but might work for you. Not sure where to find a new switch.

Great White Posted September 19, 2015 Share #4 Posted September 19, 2015 Take it apart and have a look at it. There's not much too them and they come apart very easily. It's really just a couple contacts and a spring IIRC.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really just a couple contacts and a spring IIRC.... What symptoms are causing you to think the START button/switch is bad? There were several right hand switch gears available on eBay (used, of course). Enter "XVZ start" in the eBay search box. But, the START switch is fairly robust and simple and not prone to wearing out. It IS prone to dirty contacts, though. Gary Dinges produced an excellent tutelage on cleaning the various switches on the handlebars. Perhaps as a Trial Member, you are not allowed access to all the Technical Library has to offer. If you are allowed, check out the First Generation Technical Library. There you find how to disassemble and clean the START switch. And @bongobobny, the START button has never been red. Black or gray. Edited September 19, 2015 by Prairiehammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
