key transporter failure How much how easy price etc. |
That should say transponder |
What's wrong with it? If you're getting IMMO errors then there's a couple of things you may want to check first: 1. Did you wash it / ride it in the rain? It may just need to dry out! 2. Check if the antenna in the ignition cover has dropped out of place 3. Check if your other key(s) still work as you may just need to reprogram the keys |
Thanx for reply.no hadn't washed it or anything like that,got the bike home with the dreaded not to be used daily, red key.the code brought up by the bike is for the actual key transponder not the antenna.anyway got a mate in the car trade on it, doesn't look like its going to be much of a problem to get a new key coded. |
From the manual (may help) In the event of replacement of one or more components of the immobilizer system (e.g. the black keys, the decoder, or the engine control unit), the parts in question must be programmed. To perform this operation, proceed as follows: - check that the motorcycle battery terminals are correctly connected and that the battery is in perfect condition. - Prepare the red key and the black keys. - Insert the red key (2) in the ignition switch (3). - Turn the key to the ON position to switch on the instrument panel. The instrument panel multifunction display will show the CODE symbol, the number of keys inserted (“1” in this case) and start a countdown from 30 to 0. Note: before performing this action ensure that the ignition switch remains in the OFF position for at least thirty seconds. - Check that the countdown has started and turn the key to OFF before it terminates (around three seconds). - Remove the red key within 15 seconds, insert a black key (4) and turn the switch to ON. Display will show the number of keys inserted (“2” in this case) and start a countdown from 30 to 0. - Check that the countdown has started and turn the key to OFF before it terminates. - Remove the black key within 15 seconds, insert another black key (5) and turn the switch to ON. Display will show the number of keys inserted (“3” in this case) and start a countdown from 30 to 0. - Check that the countdown has started and turn the key to OFF before it terminates. - Remove the black key within 15 seconds, insert the red key again and turn the switch to ON. The display will show the number of keys inserted (“4” in this case) and start a countdown from 30 to 0. - Check that the countdown has started and turn the key to OFF before it terminates. If the programming sequence has terminated successfully, the led (A) on the instrument panel will flash. At this point the two black keys and the instrument panel decoder have been successfully programmed. Continue the procedure as follows: - turn the ignition to ON with the red key within 15 seconds. The CODE symbol on the display will switch off. - Leave the key in the ON position for at least 5 seconds and no more than 15 seconds, to allow the data to transfer from the decoder to the engine ECU and then turn the key to OFF. - Wait for 10 seconds, then turn the ignition switch to ON again. The programming procedure is now terminated. The immobilizer system has been completely programmed. Even if you need to program only one component of the immobilizer system, always run the entire procedure. At the end of the procedure, check that the engine can be started with the black keys. Warning If display shows the message “OFF” during the procedure, this indicates that the programming routine has been aborted. Repeat the procedure from the beginning. To ensure that the immobilizer is correctly programmed, you must scrupulously observe the timings and other conditions indicated. |
As per Chris' instructions above, if you have the Red Key you can simply get ANY black key reprogrammed to start your bike using the key programming procedure. I would try reprogramming your keys again, as it may be that the battery drained on the bike enough for it to lose the list of (black) keys that are allowed to start the bike. If your black key really has failed (ie, the chip inside is unreadable*) then you can simply get a blank transponder key from Ducati - they cost around £25 from a dealer I think - then pay to have it cut to your ignition using either the red key or other black key to copy the key blade. Then you will need to reprogram the keys to allow the new black key to start the bike. * sometimes the chips in them fail. I had the one on my BMW car fail completely and it had to be replaced rather than reprogrammed. Probably due to spending 2 days in my toolbox with a magnetic parts tray that probably killed the chip!! |
It never fails to amaze me the ghreat advice and time that people take to help others out on here! Cheers. |
When i insert my red key it doesn't do the countdown mentioned allowing me to start the reprograming of the black keys? |
Sounds like your aerial is duff then? |
When i put my red key in the eobd light doesn't come on unlike my black keys thus enabling me to start the bike but the display with the red key is exactly the same as with the black key,where im lead to believe it should show a 1 (for first key) and a 30 second countdown. am i missing something? |
