What did you do in your garage today..?

My Guzzi service reminder light comes on every ̶6̶,̶0̶0̶0̶k̶m̶s̶ 10,000kms. It can only be reset by the dealer, or perhaps DIY using some very expensive equipment.

So, the light will stay on forever. I call it "The Guzzi Golden Wrench Award", given to those who perform their own service.
My Scrambler also has that wonderful wrench.

Thankfully a quick search and friendly guy in Italy hates that and wrote a code to clear the wrench without needing to go to a dealer.

Ducs are easy, just roll the date back in the display and it thinks it doesn't need a service yet. You can still have the correct day/month visual if you need that, just leave it in 2023 :)

KTM you can reset them yourself.

BMW requires an ~$75 app that, last time I checked, was only available for Android (I have it if I can help anyone out so they don't have to pay) and a ODBLX bluetooth adaptor to plug into the bike. It's easy to do and will pay for itself after it's used a couple times compared to the dealer.

Ya I figured the date change worked.

During university I needed a 2k software. Got a free trial and when it ran out I thought ‘they can’t be that stupid that a simple date change on my computer would fool those software’ …

Yes….the engineers were that dumb.

My PC was stuck in an old date from 2002 for quite some time…
