Hi fellas. So, i bought a delivery mileage 1098R from the USA. I guess it hasn't been fired up for many years. I have fitted a new battery, and when i switch on the ignition, the warning lights (indicator, oil, neutral etc) along the bottom of the dashboard, are rapidly scrolling towards the middle from both sides repeatedly. In the middle of the dash is "SBK", to the left it says "load", and on the right in a box it says "che", and below that "005". Has anybody ever encountered this?

Been doing some more reading and found Monster owners were suffering from a similar error on their dashes. Solutions ranged from new coil/injector/pump relays, new batteries to new regulator rectifiers. Most reported that dealers had been unable to identify the cause.
If Scorpio cannot help then try Wayne (aka Rider Logic on the JPDiag Forum). Based in Oz, he is an expert with dashboards. https://www.facebook.com/Riderlogic/
Do you happen to know, if when you replace a faulty dashboard, you also have to replace keys/ignition/locks/ecu?
On the 1098 the immo is within the dash. With a 2nd hand dash you need the two keys and ideally the code card. As the immo chips can be removed from the keys then a new lock set is not needed. Just transfer the chips to the old keys.
Thanks Chris. What about a new dash? Can that be matched (maybe by a Ducati dealer) to my current key chip?
have you figured out your issue with the bike? It’s happening to mine after 2 months of battery disconnect
Yes, i bought a brand new dashboard off Ebay, and it starts fine now, but i don't think the immobiliser is working. I think you have to take it to a ducati dealer to set it up for immobiliser.
Thank you! I just bought a battery hoping that was the issue. I guess it’s time to buy a new dash, did your new dash come with the key and immobilizer or did you just purchase the dash?
Do you have the code card that came with the bike for the keys you have? The dash requires the keys programming to it using the 5 digit code on the card. Otherwise the immo will not be enabled. If you do not have the code card then the information can be calculated from the data in the chip in the key. I have posted details of how to find the code on the forum. If you do have the code then follow
