(if this doesn't fix, or you mess things up you should be able to uninstall and reinstall the youtube plugin and it will reset to the default settings)
First uninstal the YOUTUBE addon (you probably don't have to do this but it was just cleaner this way I didn't have to delete any folders)
Then reinstal the YOUTUBE addon... don't sign in
Close KODI
Thent go to
https://console.developers.google.com/apis/
Click on Credentials, then New Credentials, then API key, and select Browser Key, give it a name and click Create (this creates the KEY)
Then back to Credentials
Click on Credentials, then New Credentials, then OAuth Client ID, select Other, give it a name and click Create (this creates the ID and SECRET)
At this point you've got 2 sets of credentials
Edited 02/06/16
Verify that the Youtube API is enabled
Go to
https://console.developers.google.com/apis/enabled
Verify that you see YouTube Data API v3 in the list
If it is NOT in the list go to
https://console.developers.google.com/apis/library
Click on the link for YouTube Data Api
Click on Enable API at the top
Go back to
https://console.developers.google.com/apis/enabled
Verify that YouTube Data API v3 is now in the list
End of edit 02/06/16
Locate the file - login_client.py
(On Windows it's located here - C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\addons\plugin.video.youtube\resources\lib\youtube\client
Within the file login_client.py find the section that corresponds to the version of KODI that you're using in my case I'm running version 15.2
youtube-for-kodi-15': {
'system': 'Isengard',
'key': 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa',
'id': 'bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb.apps.googleusercontent.com',
'secret': 'ccccccccccccccccccccccccccc'
Set the Key to the Browser API key you created first
Set the ID to the OAuth Client ID you created second
Set the Secret to the Client Secret shown in OAuth Client ID
(Make sure that you're copying and pasting these between the quote marks)
Save the updated login_client.py file
Then launch KODI
Select the YOUTUBE Addon
Select SIGN IN
Then do the 2 x activation thing where you go to
youtube.com/activate
Enter the code from KODI, click NEXT then click ALLOW
Then enter the second code from KODI, click NEXT, then ALLOW
And that should be it... mine seems to be working...
I have no real idea what all that stuff I did on Google was but it worked!!!
Cheers!

What for users that dont login to youtube like me
RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - DreamDancer - 2016-02-17
Hey guys, for me its working only by changing the API key for my Kodi version. And yes i had to enable YouTube data API.
Thanks for the hint!
RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - harrison3001 - 2016-02-17

Installation - install from zip or replace files directly in addons folder. Then just logout from youtube and log back. If there was still issue with quota/unknown kind then logout and login again. Every login a random credentials are chosen/propably new pool is chosen.
This worked !
Thanks

It looks like you're having success with this! Is this also the procedure if you're attempting to do it with a Fire Stick? Any help would be so very appreciated!

Thanks guys for all the work you do for this Addon. Love it!
I also had the quota problems.
activoice's solutions (http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?pid=2213129#pid2213129) works like a charme.
Thank you very much!

Yeah the same file (login_client.py) worked with my Fire stick too.
RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - kgoerbig - 2016-02-18
Version 5.1.17. Is it possible to add the keys, ids, and secret to login_client.py in this version? I tried doing so by re-naming kodi-12, kodi-13, and kodi-14 to custom names, and replacing the keys, ids, and secret's with the one's I created on the google API site, and it broke the plugin. Luckily, I named the original login_client.py to login_client.py.bak to restore it (On a RPI2).
It would be nice to add additional keys, ids, and secret that are associated with a google user. It might add additional buffer so that quota isn't exceeded with the keys that are included with 5.1.17.
RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - pawprints1986 - 2016-02-18
What if youre trying to fix the problem on a device which its not possible to plug in a keyboard to go to those specific urls... is there some sort of actual generator we can use and then just go in to the current youtube addon and just change some numbers around or something?
On mygica i could plug in a keyboard but i have no idea where to input these commands... the core settings are android based. theres no access to any sort of control panel.
anyone willing to make a video tutorial? or does one already exist for those who arent as tech savvy??
RE: YouTube (IMPORTANT - READ FIRST POST) - nickr - 2016-02-18
What urls? The creation of a API code can be done on your desktop in any browser, like the one where you typed your post in this forum!
