Ducati Diavel Service Manual: Description of the diagnosis instrument (dds)
The "dds" diagnostic system lets you diagnose any faults in the injection-ignition system via a serial port. The system is also equipped with functions to test various devices on the motorcycle. The dds diagnosis instrument can be used to measure current and voltage on any electrical device, to perform tests on individual components and to measure pressure and temperature values.
The dds (1) part number 97900.0215 Consists of a palmtop display (a), a bbad self-diagnosis module (b) and a display memory card (c).
The touch-screen display unit (a) serves for both data display and input, using the stylus housed on the side of the unit.
The self-diagnosis module (b) enables communication between the dds diagnosis instrument (1) and the motorcycle’s on-board electronic control unit (ecu).
The user interface software resides in the display memory card (c) which is housed in the palmtop display unit (a).
The display unit is equipped with two connection panels: one at the top of the instrument and one at the bottom.
The top connection panel has 6 connection sockets with the following functions:
- One vga output (e);
- One port for connection of the measurement module (f);
- One rs232 serial port for connection of peripheral devices (com1) (g);
- A second rs232 serial port for connection of peripheral devices (com2) (h);
- Two generic usb ports (usb1 and usb2) (l).
The bottom connection panel has 3 connection sockets with the following functions:
- One usb port (m);
- One power connection socket (n);
- One diagnostics connection socket (p).
You can connect a printer to the dds diagnosis instrument (1) to print test reports: connect the printer to the serial port (com1) (g) located on the top connection panel of the tester (1).

Oxygen sensors
Introduction
An on-off type oxygen sensor (in normal operating conditions, the voltage
generated by the sensors switches between a
value close to 1v and a value close to 0v) is mounted on each of the exhaust
manifold of the diavel.
Each oxygen sensor has its own internal heater, which recei ...
Overhaul of the flywheel-alternator assembly
Examine the inner part of alternator rotor (24) for signs of damage. Check
that the starter clutch is working properly and
that the needle races do not show signs of wear or damage of any kind. If there
is any malfunction, remove the whole
assembly.
