Quota exceeded is the error message we all see, so pretty sure it's the same issue. Google simply identified people who were accessing youtube in a way they didn't like so they shut everyone down.
This plugin probably either needs to be totally redone in a manner that is sanctioned by google or else just let it die. Streaming youtube probably needs to be either on streaming stick or box with official youtube plugin or by exiting Kodi and using web browser.
That was expected. Google will never allow any 3rd party access, especially without displaying ads every 5 minutes. The only way is act as browser to cheat Google, as youtube-dl and any other similar software does. Old YouTube plugin for Kodi was designed to work that way. As long as Kodi wants to be 100% safe, I think there's no way. Unless somebody develop 3rd party plugin considred as not allowed here
