I've just been reading this thread https://www.ducatiforum.co.uk/threads/service-message-reset-848.71467/ but I didn't want to derail it , or go off-topic ..... Those apps that are mentioned ..... JPDiag or GuzziDiag ?? are they the correct names ? Does anyone who is using them know if they run on both 64-bit and 32-bit machines ? I've got an old 32-bit Toshiba laptop which is gathering dust ( allegedly ) It's a good solid machine , and I fancy it for making a little home diagnostic centre in the garage . But I don't know diddley about the various software packages that are around and if they are generally well-liked . I'm guessing from other comments here that we are talking about paid-for software that Ducati owners are using ? I came across a Scottish fellow on one of the Ducati forums , and he had written his own software package , and was giving it away to forum members. But it was a good few years ago , and I can't remember if it was this forum . The wonderful world of Linux has got some great free apps available , but I haven't seen any for engine diagnostics / analysis .
Yes, those are correct names. Download for JPdiag - http://jpdiag.akress.com/ Download for Guzzi Diag - http://www.von-der-salierburg.de/download/GuzziDiag/ If your bike uses a Marelli IAW59 or IAW5A you might also find ScanST useful - http://christian.giupponi.free.fr/HELP/SCAN_ST.HTM#Téléchargement JPdiag and Guzzi Diag definitely will and I'm pretty sure that ScanST will too. There is also a Mac version of Guzzi Diag. Not me and surprisingly I've never heard of it.
Excellent, thank you. Hoping it will run on a raspberry pi 4 too. Edit, also feeling a bit stupid as I didn’t notice it in the link above.
Although it is for MotoGuzzi bikes it will work fine if you select the correct ECU type IAW59M or IAW5AM.
I have used both and they are absolutely great. GuzziDiag allows to read error codes too (diagnostics), and a lot more. Notice that older GuzziDiag versions have more features as I wrote here: * https://www.ducatiforum.co.uk/threads/1198-2011-ecu-image-for-dtc-upgrade.73009/ (search for "V45" and for "wine") * https://www.ducati.ms/threads/service-indicator-reset-with-guzzidiag.576121/#post-7031673 (search for "manual") Using these programs requires to buy only a USB KKL cable for just about 15EUR (and a 3 pin to 16 pin ODB2 adapter), but you need one with the newer chip called "FT232BL" produced by FTDI, see https://www.ducati.org/threads/848s-dash-display.56075/page-3#post-744952 I think that even very old laptops should do the job, especially if running GNU/Linux. Being proficient with a terminal helps (why kids don't learn this by default at school??!?). PS: in the wonderful world of free software GNU/Linux, "free" usually means free as in "free speech" not as in "free beer"! https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.en.html
