I have a 2009 CR150F with motocross style fork. Now with a broken ignition switch.

I mounted the unit in a bad location when I put the fork on the bike. When the bike got dropped by a buddy the switch broke apart.

Seen in the 230 forum how to bypass the key but it has 4 wires. I am stuck...anyone done this?

On my 50 i just unplugged the wires from the key and it was perfectly fine.

yeah no luck, with the wires connected together I can push start the bike and the kill switch works fine. Just can't get the electric start to work.

found the issue was a blown fuse. Once I replaced it and connected a simple two phase switch where the key/ignition was it worked. :D
