Ducati Diavel Service Manual: Active key

Introduction

The active key (1) communicates with the hands free system by radio. In order to function, the key must be within a 1.5 Metre radius from the antenna (located in the document compartment under the seat).

In the event of a flat key battery or of an internal transmitter circuit fault, the active key may be used in transponder mode (exactly like the passive key). In this mode, the key must be physically placed on the antenna in order to work correctly.

Active key


By pressing button (a) of the active key (1) the metallic part (2) opens completely - position (b).

Hold depressed button (a) to move the metal part (2) and set it to the middle position (c); once in place, release button to lock. This function facilitates the opening of the tank plug.

The metal part returns inside the grip by pushing it in.

No wiring diagram is available for the component

Error codes

"Key diagnosis" error: "wrong key". The key has been detected but is not associated with the hands free system. The fault can only be viewed from the dds after switching the dashboard on with the pin code.

"Key diagnosis" error: "encryption error". The encrypted code stored in the key is not recognised by the hands free system. The fault can only be viewed from the dds after switching the dashboard on with the pin code.

Electrical characteristics and checking component

The active key is fitted with a cr 2032 type 3 volt lithium ion battery. Use only batteries with the same code and the same electrical characteristics.

In the event of fault

A specific message is displayed on the dashboard if the key battery is flat. Replace the battery.

If the active key does not work or is not detected, it may still be used in transponder mode, placing the key itself against the lower part of the clear plexiglas windscreen.

Replacing the battery in the active key

Only use 3 volt cr 2032 lithium ion batteries.

Note

The keys do not need to be reprogrammed after replacing the battery.

Unfold the mechanical part of the active key.

Use a large sized coin to open the plastic shells of the grip (2 d coin) as shown in the figure.

Important

Insert the coil only in the indicated point. Do not other use other objects inserted in points that are different than what is shown, as it could damage the integrated circuit and/or the protective gasket.

Replacing the battery in the active key


Once the plastic shells have been separated, remove the printed circuit board (1) prying it up gently with a small flat screwdriver, as shown in the figure.

Important

Insert the point of the flat screwdriver just under the printed circuit board, being very careful not to damage it. Do not apply force on the battery or battery holder.

Replacing the battery in the active key


Remove the battery (2) from the printed circuit board (1) and replace it with a new one.

Pay attention to polarity: the positive pole (+) must face upward.

Important

Use only batteries of the recommended type (cr 2032).

Reinsert the printed circuit board (1) from the side with the battery (2) into the plastic shell.

Replacing the battery in the active key


Replacing the battery in the active key


Apply slight pressure on the antenna (3) of the printed circuit board until you hear a click.

Replacing the battery in the active key
