Question for dummy button. - Yamaha FZ6R Forums - International FZ6R / XJ6 Motorcycle Community Forum

jdesiano1 · 05-13-2009, 08:15 AM

Are there any specs for this button? I would like to hook my LEDs to it. Is it just simple wiring?

The button itself has nothing attached to it but a screw to hold it still. You have to add the switch and wiring to make it work as something else.

This weekend I plan to swap out my grips, so I will try to take some picks of the door opener switch I installed in there.

Thanks I guess it would be pretty straight forward to put a swtich there. Good luck with your grips mine were a PITA! If yall have an air compressor it is a lot easier.

Yeah, I do have one, but I usually use Windex to lubricate the removal and install. It is just slippery enough, but evaporates fairly quickly.

On the left bar near the light switch there is a button not wired to anything. Xplod wired her garage door to it. I want to wire my LEDS to it.

Yep, I believe it is where the FZ's have the button for hazard lights.

Supersonic FZ6RRRRRs don't need those.

Is that the dummy button, or the one you added for the garage door opener?

I would like to wire up a button for my garage door as well, but have NO idea where to get a button and how to do it, besides wiring into the actual door opener remote and mounting it to the bike somewhere...
