I got a 2004 ds baja x and i was haven problems with my charging system, so my battery kept dying. i jumped it with one of those 12 volt jumper packs and it worked a couple times then i was starting it and smoke started coming from near my tach, i was hoping that there was just a fuse under that that was blown but i cant find any. I was thinkin maybe it fried something in my tach but im not sure. It will turn over fine now i have the battery charged and everything but it just wont fire. any help would be greatly apreciated also if anyone knows of a wiring diagram online u would be my hero forever haha

thnks

 

There are two fuses under the seat just in front of the airbox.

 

yeah i checked both fuses both are good. i think i burned something up in the tach cause it is stuck at 4000 and wont reset or anything but i was hopin there was a way i could just unhook it cause there not to cheap

 

I understand it may be something to do with the tach. ,but have you tried to see if you are getting any spark from the engine at all...take the plugs out and check to see if you are getting anything...also make sure that the wires that go to the clutch are connected all the way and that you battery has enough to actually crank it since it is very important to have a good battery...let me know if any of this works and if not I will help you to get it figured out...I belive you could pick a tach up at auto zone or one of the auto stores and wires it in.

 

nope no spark at all and it will turn over fine just wont run, ive tried unhooking the tach hoping it would run but i think im just going to have to buy a new tach and hopefully that fixs it thnks guys

 

check your ground wire on the frame and make sure it has a good connection...also besides the tach check the wires at the clutch like I mentioned before.

 

I was wondering if you fond out what the problem was with your ds650 bc i just had the same thing happen to me.. and its not ur tach that was smoking it is your coils. please let me know what was wrong with yours thanx

 

mine ended up being the cdi box.. got a new one and one coil was burnt up.. hope you find out whats wrong with yours
