Ducati Diavel Service Manual: Dashboard diagnosis

This function identifies any abnormal vehicle behaviours.

The dashboard activates any abnormal vehicle behaviours in real time (errors).

At key-on (at the end of the check) one or more "errors" are displayed in red (only if they are active).

When an "error" is triggered, the indication (red) remains well visible (1) for 10 seconds then becomes smaller (2).

If there are multiple errors, they will scroll automatically every 3 seconds. The "engine/vehicle diagnosis - eobd" light on dashboard located on handlebar always turns on when one or more errors are activated.

The table below shows the errors that can be displayed.
