Hi,
I’m having an intermittent DES! warning light come on on my 2015 1299s
I’ve had it from new. It’s had a new quick shifter (under warranty) and a new battery thus far (fitted by Ducati).
Reading comments I need to now look at the battery connectors it seems.
I wonder if anyone else has anything else to offer up as electronic suspension issues also look to be a thing??
Any help/opinions greatly received.
Thanks.

How many miles and I assume you have not had your forks or shock serviced yet?
 
Clea/inspect the suspension control unit (left mid fairing) then take a zip tie (or two) and wrap it around the suspension control unit plug and body pressing the plug into the unit. Disconnect battery for a couple hours. Plug it back in. This worked for 2 1299s that I owned.

Yes, 1299S and that light would intermittently come on. Ducati was finally able to reproduce it and, to my memory, was a faulty relay. They warrantied out the entire dash. Not a problem with it since. Good luck.
