"Maint" message

[Ducatiloo]

Is this according to the owner's manual, or did your dealer tell you this?

From what I hear the 696 needs some kind of box plugged in to reset it. 

corpthug what ya riding?

The mathesis?  To reset the "Maint" message?  That's annoying.

Really? I reset the message on my 620 after the dealer forgot without a problem. I thought they had the same gauge and ECU package

Both. The manual says something to the effect of see your dealer, so I did and they told me that they charge $25 to clear it. So I'll just leave it there... no biggie.

696 has a different ECU and gauges from the other '02 and later bikes.

Do you have the shop manual (I don't mean the owner's manual)?  If your dealer tech is cool, ask him or consult the shop manual.  I'm no expert, but I'll bet it can be reset without the mathesis.

shadowchaser is the only shop guy i know.

OOOHHHHH 696....damn, I was thinking 695. Sorry. My bad.

Yay for the search option.

I just saw this message for the first time on my m750 i.e. and was worried it was related to the sputter I was getting (probably from not-so-good gas; I usually use premium and had to use mid grade, which gave me sputters in the past).

found this on another site
no FHI...

with the key in the off position, hold the scroll lever in the up position. While still holding the lever up turn the key and in a few seconds it will say PRO MODE, go into the MEM setting and clear it, turn the key off, back on. should be reset

From the '06 s2r1000 manual....

(button 13 is between the gauges on the right)

To remove the “MAInt”
message hold down button (13) and
set the key to ON, wait until the
message clears and then release
the button and set the key to OFF.
When the ignition key is returned to
ON the message should not reappear.

696 owners have reported that the method used for the older model bikes does not work for them


edit: let us know if this works.

there are 9000 posts in this thread that are NOT applicable to 696..be really helpful if somebody has any info about resetting the  696 indicator- it does not access or reset the same way other model bikes do...
thanks!
