Hello all,
I have a 2018 desert sled, bought it new in the US , and shipped it to the Caribbean where I live. That's right, no dealership on the island, am on my own.
4,500 miles into it, all going great until one fine day I start the bike, and notice the dashboard was blank. To add to the oddity, the low fuel indicator light, which normally comes on, and stays on, was blinking. Very odd. Bike had plenty of gas too. Once I stopped it, I could not start it again. I could just hear the normal buzzing sound the dashboard does when it is keyed on, but no visuals, and alas, no starting.
I fiddled with the fuses. All fine, but because electricity was interrupted, something must have been re-set, and I got it to start. For a brief moment there was a flashing "SW 50" in the dashboard, which had never come on. Bike runs fine, dashboard works fine. But now everytime I stop the bike, I cannot get it to start unless I disconnect and reconnect the battery.
Any ideas of what may be going on? A seasoned mechanic with Ducati experience on the island believes it to be a key related issue. But without a Ducati scanner, he cannot pin point the issue.
Any troubleshooting leads would be most welcome,
