I have a document that does that. I will try to find it. If I do, I'll scan it and upload.

I think the easiest solution would be to try'n get hold of an unused set of clocks.
Nick,would a set of clocks from a buke that hasnt been coded not be ok?
The ones we fitted to Daves bike were off just such a bike.

Butch...I'd be interested in those clocks if you want shot of them for a price.

I've made some small progress on this - I've removed all the dc motors from the panel, all the mounts etc and have built a small loom extension & tested it ok. The next step is to re-house the pcb in a suitable enclose from Maplins or RS. Once that is working I will be able to relocate it under the seat out of harm's way so, at least the bike can be used.

The next step after that is to obtain a cct diagram to try to find whether or not the panel can be jumpered out of the circuit.

I also plan to test it on the new 800 to verify whether or not panels can be interchanged between the bikes.

Today I fitted the panel from the old bike to my new bike. It was immobilised and would not start. I fitted the new bike's panel to the old bike with the same results.

So.....it would seem that indeed you cannot swap panels and therefore you cannot use a 2nd-hand instrument panel that has been coded to another bike.

The clocks we used were secondhand but had never been used with the red key,therefore uncoded.
If we had one such set in the paddock surely that would get us out of trouble.

So, anyone know the best person at Ducati UK we should contact to find out if there is a 'factory-approved' solution if one of us gets immobilised at a race meeting ?
(ie at the track - NOT paying a fortune to a dealer by plugging into their diagnostic equipment at their premises some considerable time after the racing finishes)

Hmmm, even knowing how to tell if the clocks have ever been used with a red key would be a start, wouldnt it

Phil...I've been through all this mate - with Ducat UK's technical rep'...can't remember his name now but, there isn't a workaround. It's a crazy daft situation.

I will try to source a set of uncoded clocks as spares for all riders.
would only be "on loan " untill the end of the meeting and would need to be replaced if damaged-would that be ok for all riders?
