Well after an eventful 2 days in the garage trying to trace the fault it appears I have a dead cell in my battery. The battery reads a good 13.05 volts but as soon as it's off the trickle charger the volts drop one by one. The bike started without the atenna ring attached which leads me to believe the immobiliser has been bypasses somehow and the 37.3 code is telling me the immobiliser is off in effect.

Got my new antenna on this morning but sadly the bike didn't start

Anyway after a conversation with Ducati John, a new battery and a couple of 12v 4 pin new relays (as my DUCATI was using MG ROVER 5 pin relays!) and she's fired up without hesitation.

Just to confirm the battery was changed first and the bike worked. The relays were swapped out after, not that they are faulty however... Well they say MG ROVER on them so it's only a matter of time before they melt!

Thanks for all the help guys!
