15000 mile service - hint to diagnostic / service reset tool

Help Support Ducati Forum:

For the ones interested in being able to check out/delete errors, reset service lights and reset throttle and a couple other things here are the details:

This actually WORKS! I have done it on my bike (2013 1199) but you have to make sure you buy the right stuff:

You need to buy a cable that transforms the bike's 4 pin connector (under passenger seat) to 16 pin OBDII, then also an OBDII scanner (for cars).. then download and register the free software and you are set!

The ELM327 1.4 USB OBDII scanner has to have the FTDI FT232RL chip:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/ELM327-USB-...940291?hash=item3607ca6b83:g:ChgAAOSwdzVXvgoG
Price is around $20


The 4 to 16 pin you buy it from an UK website called lonelec:

Price $20ish shipped (dont remember exactly)

And the software is MelcoDiag:
Download/registration and info can be found here (if you have questions you can register in their forum and they usually reply pretty fast):
jpdiag
(its the software at the very bottom of the screen for the bikes with Mitsubishi ECU)
Price FREE! - I use it with Windows 7 64 bit

For the OBD2 Scanner the link you had is no longer available; I found the same seller with this one:

ELM327 USB OBD2 Scanner Modified HS CAN MS CAN Switch FTDI FT232RL + PIC18F25K80

I reckon that's the new auction for a comparable item?

I just ordered the scanner and 4 to 16 plug. Once I get it ill download the software. Does anyone know if this scanner will work on a 2015 S1000R and 2016 S1000RR? If it does Im sure correct connector needs to be purchased. Its most likely not the same as the 16 pin the Duc has
 
i brought mine on a trailer, took off the rad, sub frame, tank, fairings it costed me $400 to do the valves, which kinda makes sense i called dealerships and they said it'takes them about 2.5-3hr to bring it down to the valve covers and another 2.5-3 to bring it back so if you do it yourself it should shave off about 6 hours of labour
 
2 or 3k that is not justified. It happen to me for my GS that last maintenance (in Germany) they charged 1k€. This was the last time they saw me. Bought all stuff and some specific equipment such ODB connector plus software and did the maintenance my self with the help of some good tutorials and a lot of preparation

We should stop acting like this, we are fine with premium stuff but most of us still need to work Hard to earn money
