998 ICU problems

[Totto]

A mate i sold my 998pipes/icu to is having a problem and the dealer says that it might be the icu ,is there any where i can get it fuly checked out other than just plugging it into the Ducati service tool as this doe`s not seem to regonise it

Any info would be helpfull

I presume you mean the ECU. Firstly you need to let us all know what the problems are that you are experiencing ??
are you talking about the EPROM ?
Without that knowledge I can only presume....
You may have fuelling issues? The bike wont fire up? what type of Chip is it? who made it ?
If its ultipro, it can be sent to sigma performance for checking, if its a ducati one, it needs to be in the bike unit and then connected to the ducati mathesis unit for diagnosis.

give a us a few clues first eh ??

Think hes talking about an ecu unit. I have some spares if hes struggling..eproms or ecu's

998 eprom/ECU is the all in one jobbie,similar to the 999.

Yes is the std 998 Icu ( injection control unit )actually its the 996R icu for the open 45 termis . might have been better saying that at start !!!!

The bike wont fire up and the dealer says the Ducati workshop matheis thingy wont SEE the icu , hes going to try the std icu asap to see what happens


Is that any clearer :)

To stop the confusion it is the ECU (electronic control init) which controls the injection not an ICU(?)

Its the twinplug bit that sits next to the battery on the 998 , it controls the electronics and the spark/injection system


The dealer now says its doing everything it should bar a spark output , so the fuel pump primes ok but no spark ,and no bike :)
