08' 696 monster timing mark

[Pinion]

ended up making my own out of and old 17mm impact socket. Worked great.
here are some pics of the joy happening here. if your bike is idling, dont answer you phone and walk away

What exactly caused the fire?

[Pinion]

she started it, answered the phone and walked away while running. Came back bike was shut down and smoking
I think she was lucky. scraped most of plastic off, will do comp test to see if vert cylinder valves are ok.

Is there such a thing as a code reader for ducati. getting a yellow Fault light on this 08 696 we are trying to start up after mild fire.

[Speeddog]

Owners manual has some error code info.

[Pinion]

How do i pull the codes

[EEL]

Isnt the yellow light the immobilizer?

[Pinion]

dunno
dont have a manual
was to understand that was fault light

[Speeddog]

Owner's manual can be downloaded at http://www.ducati.com/services/maintenance/index.do

It tells how to access the error codes and what they mean.

[Pinion]

Awsome, thanks speeddog

I would rather have sex with a cactus then work on other peoples bikes. Friends dont let friends be friends
Moving on
Soooo getting the yellow code light, going to menu to check code and try to put in imobolizer over ride code. Code or Error is not an option on the menu, reffered to manual, states (if active) which tells me if there is no option for code on menu, there is no code. So at this point went to OHIO to shoot friend, ( no longer have friend issue)
Still pulling screw drivers out of my own skull. Any input from anyone. 

[Speeddog]

So, I'm understanding that you're not getting any error codes, just the yellow CEL lite on?

[Pinion]

yes

[Speeddog]

I'd take a look at the wiring for the antenna in the keyswitch shroud.

[Pinion]

we couldnt find an issue, but I guess we will tear it apart now. Oh joy
Thanks for your input
