I was working on adding an oil cooler to my M620 this weekend.  After putting everything back together in working order, I went out for a quick ride to see if the oil cooler was functioning correctly.  After a 10 minutes ride, I got home and realized that this thingy wasn't even plugged in.   Huh?  What is this thingy for anyway?  Thanks.

Well, a look at the parts guide (http://issuu.com/ducatiomaha/docs/m620ie_usa-02) tells us that it's a sensor.

What it senses, I'm not sure. Perhaps a temperate sensor, or pressure?

*shrugs*

If you give it a bit, someone smarter will come along and enlighten us all.

Now we know.

I can't imagine it running very well with the cam sensor disconnected.

Thanks for all the feedback.  Now I know "knowing is half of the battle".   laughingdp

LOL, that's what I was going for. 

I can't imagine it running very well with the cam sensor disconnected.

The bike was running just fine with it disconnected.  It even registered temperature.  Weird...  I wonder if there is any other temperature sensors and the reading is the average or the highest temperature.
