Starter Button not doing anything when pushed
I'm having a starting issue with my 1995 Ninja 250. I rode it earlier this morning to do some errands. I was going to ride it a second time today to pick up groceries but the starter button did not work. When I pushed on it, nothing happened (no sound, nothing). My side kick stand was up and I was in neutral. All of the other electricals worked including the horn, blinkers, speedometer light, oil light, and neutral light. I was thinking the something was wrong with the starter solenoid. The 30v main fuse was not blown when I checked. I'm at my college location so I don't have access to my parent's tools. I was going to buy a voltmeter tomorrow to check on things.
It did this once a couple weeks ago but I played around with multiple things (putting kickstand up and down, flipping on/off switch constantly, smacking side of the gas tank...) and it started back up fine. This time I'm not so fortunate. I'm guessing somethings not grounding correctly. |

Ending up messing with the clutch sensor/kickstand sensor and it fired up perfectly. Thanks!

I have this same problem and it always seems to happen every time I gas up... I end up having to push start it and then theres no problem after that until I gas up again.
I don't understand the solution based on reading those files. can someone explain it to me like i'm 5? lol |
