PIN code?

HI there.
I had same problem so tried a couple of combos and 1111 worked for me.?

 

Has to be plugged into diagnostic kit but only takes about 10mins so best find another dealer

 

If you want to take a run north out Nottingham way, drop by and I'll reset it for you. Like bolds says, doesn't take 10 mins.

 

Really, I had hoped they were more secure than that!

 

They are tbh. Can only be done with dealer software.

 

Yep. No problem. Won't take much planning tbh. Whenever suits......

 

Doesn't really matter. It's not much of a job. 9-5 all week and 9-1 on a saturday. C&S would take a bit of planning, but could do it

 

Interesting, I have the same issue, previous owner ignored my requests to get info, local dealer said it could not be changed ! However local guys who look after mine have not got the right software to do it, but moto rapido said it can be done , but they are too far away for me.

If this is as easy as this, I would be very interested in getting it sorted too

 

You're not too far away Nik. I'm about 5 miles off J28 M1. Offers' the same :smile:

 

The factory set PIN code is the last 4 characters of the VIN number. The previous owner may not have changed it, if he did change it a new pin takes about a minute to put in with the Ducati diagnostic computer.

 

The factory do not set any pin code, if yours has that it probably was done by the selling dealer

 

Ditto what Bolds says....the factory supply it blank. There's nothing set until someone puts one in.

 

Thanks nelly I will take you up on that offer, will get in touch to sort it out

 

Yep you are right, my apologies. For both new Multistrada's I have had delivered to me, to change the PIN numbers I entered the last four digits of the VIN number first to allow me to then enter my own number. I had assumed the factory had set the first PIN code, must have been the dealer and pure arse that I used the last four digits of the VIN number.

From the manual:

Warning
The motorcycle owner must activate (store) the PIN code; if there is already a stored PIN, contact an Authorised Ducati dealer to have the function ”reset”. To perform this procedure, the Authorised Ducati Dealer may ask you to demonstrate that you are the owner of the motorcycle.
