Two questions: 1) How do you enter the service code?

I have an '09 Stelvio and when I turn the key to the "on" position, the dash display the message "Remember to insert your user code". The message does not prevent me from starting the bike.

2) Is the user code read from the key?
 
The user code is different from the service code. It is entered so that if the system doesn't recognize your key, you can enter the user code and the bike will run. Entering the user code is in the menu system. See this link http://www.servicemotoguzzi.com/public/ ... 202008.pdf page 59 if you don't have your owners manual. Instructions are on page 67, since you don't have a current user code, put in what you want. Most use the service code so there is one less number to remember.

Service code is entered to get DTCs and to reset the service icon. This is under the diagnostics area in the menu system.
 
THANKS JOHN, I'll see if I can enter a new code. Since the book does not go into any detail, when you are entering a code, are you just using the mode button to toggle through numbers and letters on the display? -Patrick
 
Also a question about the personal code. When I got the bike and started it the first time the display asked to enter a personal code.
So I did no problem. I forgot all about it (not the code). But I wonder when I need that personal code or whatfore?
Maybe when I have to enter a new key? :S
Never used or needed it, but I can't find any info about it.

Ciao Dolf. :)

Yes, see the first paragraph on page 59.
 
Not that it currently affects me, but I wonder about the code for the Griso 8V. It is six digits, all the others are five.

Typo perhaps?

I read it somewhere? In the manual perhaps, can't remember, but 12425 works fine for my 8V.

Hi John
I didnt know my breva 11 had a joystick, what do you mean?
I have to reset the service code as the spanner is now appearing on the dash instruments yet service was done 1100 miles earlier
than scheduled due to holiday in ireland and wales.

Sorry to ask

Steve
 
Steve: Use the button to reset it. The button you use to toggle through the menu items is the same one for inputing the code.
 
I thought that all Brevas used the Joystick control but seeing Jon's in LA last week i realized that some of them have the Griso type button set-up.

The 'Joystick' type is the one where you have one sliding switch in the middle of the cluster that can slide left and right and be depressed in the centre position.

The 'Button' type used on the Griso, (And obviously some Brevas!) has a three way sliding switch that says 'Mode' and 'Trip 1' and 'Trip 2' or some such. and then a button on the FRONT of the switchblock just beneath the clutch lever.

My Breva 1100 is exactly as Pete describes above.
 
yep can confirm my 2005 breva 1100 has button type with a sliding switch - mode 1 and 2 etc.
36421 worked a treat, just like those digital watches in setting up, length of time you press the button and number etc. just like morse code. lol.
thanks everyone
looking for another guzzi to join the breva, either a 650/750 twin or california type to modify/restore :-D

Hi All

I was recently contacted by a chap who bought his bike second hand from a so called dealer without books or all the keys.
He has no idea of his bike"s user code. Any idea whether ?or not he can access that info?

Also he had another key cut and doesn't know how to have the chip in the key recognized by the bike to allow it to start. Any ideas?

Thanks AllanK
 
Which model?

The service codes for each model are listed on the first post of this thread. This cannot be changed, afaik. The personal user code for each rider, which is required to program new keys, is often set as the same as the service code for simplicity.

However, the owners and workshop manuals are available here: https://www.guzzitech.com/MGGriso/Manuals.html
 
Thanks for the reply. His bike is a Breva. I think that it is a 1100 but could be a 750. But I don't suppose that that matters.
