Ducati Diavel Service Manual: Introduction to the engine control system
The engine control system used on the diavel consists of the following elements:
- Ride-by-wire system (motorised throttle valves with electric actuator, throttle grip position sensor and throttle valve position sensor)
- One injector per cylinder installed downstream of throttle valve
- One coil per cylinder, in spark plug bore
- Two oxygen sensors (one per cylinder, installed on each exhaust manifold)
- Two absolute pressure (map) sensors installed downstream of throttle valve (one per cylinder connected to each intake duct)
- One three-way catalytic converter for exhaust gas post-treatment
The system also includes conventional sensors for water and air temperature, engine speed-timing etc.

Programming/reprogramming keys
The dds diagnosis instrument is required in order to programme/reprogramme
the keys. The key programming procedure
is launched from this instrument.
To start the key programming/reprogramming pr ...
Specific operating strategies
Idle speed
No electric motor is used for idle speed regulation (bypass is modulated
instead with the throttle valve), as idle speed
control is effected by the ride-by-wire system. Idle speed is ma ...

Indication of range reached for service
When service coupon threshold is achieved, upon every key-
on the system displays the indication of the type of
intervention that is required (oil service or desmo
service).
The (red) warning is activated as a large icon for 10 seconds
upon every key-on (1, fig. 33) Then as a small warning th ...
Removing outer components
Note
The following removal operations are required in order to renew and/or
clean the crankcase halves. If the original
crankcase halves are to be reused, then the removal of these components is not
essential.
Unscrew the screw (17) and remove the oil breather valve (1) with the o-rings

Description of the clutch assembly
The clutch is disengaged by a drive unit consisting of a thrust piston (c)
accommodated inside a small cap mounted to
the generator cover. This piston (c) pushes a pushrod (b), which runs through
gearbox primary shaft and operates the Pressure plate (4)
located on top of the clutch plate pack ...
