Introduction
The engine control system on the diavel uses a sensor that measures air temperature. This sensor has a resistance of ntc type (negative temperature coefficient), that reduces its own value when the temperature increases. The air temperature sensor allows the engine control unit to modify the fuel-air mixture and ignition advance in relation to the atmospheric air temperature.
Components assembling position

The air temperature sensor is mounted on the right hand air intake (the image also shows the location of the connection).

In the event of fault
In the event of an air temperature sensor fault, the engine control unit implements a recovery value of 25C.
Fault codes generated and possible correlated faults
Fault codes generated by the engine control unit and displayed by the dds (intake air temperature sensor diagnosis):
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 dashboard service display shows the error "air temperature" and the eobd warning light activates.
Possible correlated faults: inadequate engine power, irregular idle speed (target idle speed is 1350 rpm with engine stabilised at operating temperature), the engine does not start easily. Check: -sensor resistance, which must be approximately 2 kohm at 25 C.
The air temperature value may be checked using the dds. Check that the value given is plausible.
If none of the aforementioned tests identify the problem and the air temperature sensor is in proper working order, replace the engine control unit.
Component replacement methods
No special measures are necessary in order to replace the air temperature sensor.

Reporting of safety defects
If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could
cause a crash or could cause injury or death, you should
immediately inform the national highway traffic safety
administration (nhtsa) in addition to notifying ducati north
america. If nhtsa receives similar complaints, it may open
an in ...
Replacing the front phonic wheel sensor
Disconnect the front abs sensor (2) connector (a) from the main electric
wiring.
Open all the retainer clamps of the front abs sensor cable (2): refer to table
of sect. 7 - 6, Flexible wiring/hoses
positioning.
Loosen retaining screw (1) and remove the front abs sensor (2) with
