2017 FZ07/MT07 gear sensor issue - EASY FIX

I am not a mechanic and this is for informational purposes only. I had an issue with the display not indicating the correct gear or any gear at all. The problem could be that the electrical contacts on the gear position sensor need to be cleaned. this is a step by step guide on how I accomplished this.

[@maxwellbeaver138]

Why can't all how-to repair videos be like this?
Quick, to the point, no fluff and explanation, everything he does is shown, all the dead time is cut, reassembly is included.
Everything you need, nothing you don't

and he speeks very clear and slow that helps to

Such a good video dude! Mine wasnt going into neutral so olayed sround with the clutch cable and then found this video. This also helped it show 3rd gear woohoo! I didnt sand it dont have any sand paper but just cleaned it. Maybe ill samd it at a later date

[@marcutrillogibert9154]

Many thanks to safe my time

[@ggttvv02]

good

[@8alakai8]

very good only i thing i did see was do you even lube your chain? if i take my cover of after 3 months its full of grease there

[@kevinhumphrey4072]

Hey @thumperdude can you spray a bit of ACF-50 in the sensor to keep it clean and corrosion-free?

[@TseshQc]

Hi,
What type of sand paper did you use? Ty

[@YamahaRiderMT09]

is not only like that > the wire will broken inside (from vibrations ), you mast to clean the silicon of the back and welding the wire , then will be a good fix !

[@kilianc4768]

Which spray do you use to clean the sensor? Also, what type of oil do you use?

[@thumperdude630]

i believe i used brake cleaner. and i just use yamalube which should be what's recommended

[@juancalderon3824]

Did you add the chain guard back at the end?

[@wernerxldata]

I missed that part too :)

[@busansanai]

My experience: The sensor is housed in plastic. Do not overtighten it because this dingdong (aka myself) did it accidentally and now it has a crack on the screwhole. The replacement unit is like $200 or more.

[@coltonbaird2060]

What oil did you use for the spring thing

[@thumperdude630]

yamalube. i dont remember the viscosity but use the same motor oil you put in your engine.

[@fresh_thony]

What oil did you use?

[@GoProXadventures]

Looks like engine oil

[@8alakai8]

with this video a 6 year old could do it

[@stimpyueediot]

mine keeps flicking between gear when riding. going to see if this fixes it.
