To: Dealer Principal, General Manager, Service Manager, North American Dealer Network
From: Richard Kenton, Technical Director
Eric Bradley, Technical Training and Publications Manager
Dear Dealers,
Ongoing product testing and reports from the dealer service network have identified the potential improper installation of the Quick Shift sensor cable (DQS). The DQS sensor cable could be slightly stretched (mainly when the gearchange lever is operated), with a consequent possible internal damage causing the following errors:
– P0827: Ducati Quick Shift sensor error [Short circuit to ground]
– P0828: Ducati Quick Shift sensor error [Short circuit to positive]
The motorcycles involved in this Service Campaign must be inspected and the DQS sensor cable must be re-routed if needed to ensure the correct operation of the system.
In the case of the presence of the above listed failure codes, contact your service area manager through YouTech.
NOTE
In case of accessory DQS sensor assembly for the Standard versions, ensure the cable is routed as described in this bulletin.

Service Solution
NOTE
To ensure the correct execution of the operation within the provided labor time to carry out the updates, it is necessary to follow the sequence indicated in the following instructions
For the correct routing of the DQS sensor cable, you will have to check the distance between the DQS sensor cable (1) and the gearchange lever; carry out this check using a 4 – 5 mm feeler gauge, as shown in the figure.
COMPLIANT DQS sensor cable routing
If the distance between the DQS sensor cable and the gearchange lever
is between 4 – 5 mm, cable routing is COMPLIANT and no corrective action is required.
Feeler gauge
4÷5 mm

NON-COMPLIANT DQS sensor cable routing
If the distance between the DQS sensor cable and the gearchange lever is more than
the 4 – 5 mm specified above, cable routing is NOT COMPLIANT.
Corrective action
Restore the distance between DQS sensor cable and gearchange lever by slightly pulling, without forcing, the cable downwards, as shown in the figure.
