If you encounter YouTube error 429, first ensure your Wi-Fi or mobile data connection is stable. Try toggling Wi-Fi/Mobile Data off and on. If on Wi-Fi, try restarting your router by unplugging it for 30 seconds and plugging it back in. Test if other apps can access the internet without issues. You can also try switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data (if available) to see if the error is network-specific. A poor or intermittent connection can sometimes lead to repeated failed requests, triggering the error.
