899 899 Panigale Eml On

So, I'm gonna jump right in before anyone who's got a clue does! DTC (Ducati Traction Control) is probably unhappy that front wheel and rear wheel are turning different speeds, or similar. Did you try giving F & R wheel sensors a clean with a brush? OK, will step aside now and make room for an expart!

 

I believe the horizontal cylinder is designated as #1 (or "A") and the vertical is designated as #2 (or "B") when deciphering diagnostic codes.

 

Got an eml come up on mine today, can someone tell me where this is before i phone a dealers.
Thx

 

I think you would be better off getting the codes scanned first, if you have the ability to do so using JPDiag and the appropiate USB / Ducati cables. Anything else is just guess work IMO.

 

Unfortunately i dont, thanks anyway.
Weird thing is it was and is running fine, i'm wondering if there is some dust on a sensor of some description as i have a very dusty/dog hairy house where i'm keeping it atm (havent bought a cover yet either).
Seems weird that it just came on as soon as i took it out of the house.

 

Well, you can certainly give it a go if you dont have access to JPDiag.

The front wheel sensor is behind the front mud guard on the left hand side of the bike as you sit on it.

The rear sensor is on the right hand side of the bike, just under the brake caliper.

You will notice a circular disk with notches in ,I beleive those are the sensors V4Missile refered too.

Good luck

 

If irs running fine would you risk riding it to the dealers (30 miles) or get it collected?

 

If it’s running ok then warm it up and ride it for a couple of miles and then see if the light goes off.

 

I’d ride it in, unless you plan on getting there in 10 minutes.

 

My thoughts too and I obviously won’t hold you to your advice
I’ve no reason to think it’s running badly it’s just an electrical gremlin.
Will make sure my old man’s following me in the car mind.

 

So it seems its one of the map sesnors (never knew there were two) and once one goes;

Two on order at a meagre £375 including fitting.

God ive missed getting my pants pulled down by dealers lol

 

You ain’t kidding £90 each and dead easy to get to and replace.

 

+£120 for a van to get it to the dealers

Fuck it, it’s done now thought, at least I know what it was and it wasn’t serious.

 

The van firm are great though

anyvan.com

Used them twice now and an excellent service if anyone needs one.

 

I bought a map sensor as a spare for £30. Theyre located in the black plastic thingy either side where panels fit. Where lots of elec gubbins are. Prob fit in 20mins inc putting panels back on.

 

Is that supposed to make me feel better?

Tbf 2x£95 plus an hours service costs as they don’t do it in 20 minute segments plus vat is best part of what I was quoted. Ducati prices “innit”. It is what it is, I have two weeks off work and I’m not going to let it annoy me

 

Sorry Red, but I always look for parts like these sourced without Ducati Tax. In your case £65/map sensor.

 

I’ll stick the invoice up when I collect it Saturday afternoon and we can all have a good old laugh at me
