Ducati Diavel Service Manual: Engine start button
Introduction
The engine start button is located on the right hand handlebar switchgear set and is used to turn the engine on.
Component assembling position
The engine start button is included in the switchgear set on the right hand handlebar.

In the event of fault
In the event of a start button fault, the engine cannot be started.
Fault codes generated and possible correlated faults
The engine control unit generates no fault code in the event of an engine start button fault.
No errors are indicated on the dashboard
Possible correlated faults: the starter motor cannot be operated. Check:
- Battery charge.
- Integrity of the electric circuit (open circuit, short circuit to ground and toward vdc) and electrical connections of the start button.
- Integrity of the start button. In the button's two different positions, the resistance at its contacts (pin 1 and pin 2) must be zero (depressed - continuity) or infinite (released - open circuit).
- The integrity of the engine starter motor relay and its circuit.
- Integrity of the starter motor and that the motor is correctly connected to the electrical system (also check ground connection on engine, see sect. 6 - 3"Starter motor").
- The integrity of the side stand switch, the clutch lever switch, the gear position sensor and their respective circuits
- Integrity of stop engine switch.
Note
Check integrity of electric circuit - short-circuit to vdc = with dashboard on, using a voltmeter, a voltage is measured between the wire tested and ground.
Check integrity of electric circuit - short-circuit to ground = with the battery cables disconnected, using an ohmmeter, continuity is detected between the wire tested and ground.
Check integrity of electric circuit - open circuit = with the battery cables disconnected, using an ohmmeter, no continuity is detected between the two ends of the wire tested.
The dds instrument can be used to display the activation state of the engine start button.
If none of the tests described above identifies the problem and the power supply and ground for the engine control unit are in correct working order, replace the engine control unit.
Component replacement methods
No special measures are necessary in order to replace the starter button.
Checking the right-hand handlebar switch
To remove the right-hand handlebar switch, undo the retaining screws (1) and disconnect the wiring connector from the electric system.
Refitting is the reverse of removal; tighten the screws (1) to a torque of 1.3 Nm +/- 10% (sect. 3 - 3, Frame torque settings).
Throttle valve operation engine
Introduction
The electric motor actuating the throttle valve for the vertical cylinder is
mounted on the throttle body of the diavel, while
a link rod connects the vertical cylinder throttle valve ...
Clutch lever button
Introduction
The clutch button is located on the clutch lever. Together with the signal
from the side stand button and the neutral signal
generated by the gear sensor (transmitted to the engine co ...

Inspection of the gear selector forks
Visually inspect the gear selector forks. Bent forks must be renewed as they
may lead to difficulties in gear changing or
may suddenly disengage when under load.
Use a feeler gauge to check the clearance of each fork in its gear groove.
If the service limit has been exceeded, check whether ...
Moving off
Disengage the clutch by squeezing the clutch lever.
Push down the gear change lever firmly with the tip of
your foot to engage first gear.
Raise the engine revs by turning the throttle twistgrip
while gradually releasing the clutch lever. The motorcycle
will start moving.
Release the ...
The battery charging circuit and power distribution
On the diavel, the +15v (key on power) voltage does not come from a
conventional ignition key, but from pin 30 of the
hands free relay. This relay is switched to closed state by the hands free unit
when the latter enables power on for the
ignition and engine. The hands free relay receives +30v ...
