Re-setting the service wrench icon on the V85's

[Tom H]

With the 2 adapter cables included with the the device you were able to reset the service on your E5?

If so, this is different than the V7III not II's that I HAD to connect to the MGMP (??) cable that lives between the battery and rear fender.

Hi Tom
I just checked which plug I used.  It is the MT04-1 and plugs into a connector that is located next to the ECU under the seat.  Bonus- the scanner was powered by this plug, so I didn't need to connect the leads to the battery.  I'll admit I'm pretty new to bikes with computers, so I'm not sure what the MGMP is or what it looks like. My others are pre-computer Yamahas and a very crusty older Vespa.

Good luck!

Wait - V7II? Or did you mean V7III?

I thought the V7II still used the old dash like the V7C or the MkI V7 series like my Stone. On them you didn't need a tool for the reset.

All this, plus hundreds of dollars and maybe you can turn off your little orange light!😆😆

You can rent a Duonix 2 here https://www.ebay.com/itm/136113516799 to reset your light for probably less than the cost of a dealor.

Place is in Stevens Point , WI   might be worth it if in IL

I just looked and confirmed the Icarsoft unit comes with the MT-04 adaptor he used to reset the service light.

Kev M, I meant the V7III not the II. Slight type.

So the red tip cable will do the E5's. Not sure if I have done an E5 yet. Thanks for the tip!!!!

I can't speak to the V7iii, but I know the V7ii has the plug for the MGMP (tucked behind battery), and easily connects to Guzzi Diag through the connector (under the seat). I've had the unit since new.

As I understand it, the V7ii has the same transmission, TC and ABS as the V7iii, but it has the Heron head VS the Hemi on the V7iii. The V7iii had the Hemi Head and some change in the shock and rider triangle measurements. Was there an ECU change mid stream on the V7iii that made hooking up Guzzi Diag and resetting the service indicator?

I don't even remember if the V7ii even has a service indicator wrench....

My 2015 V7 had the wrench.  One could turn it off using the buttons on the gauge.

I don't pay any attention to the wrench on my V85.  It's on.  So what?  It's small.

[Tom H]

Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm not a history buff of the V7 series.

The earlier V7's with the 2 buttons on the dash you could clear the wrench with one of the buttons. When the dash was changed to the one without the buttons, you then needed to use the MGMP (?) connector which required the extra cable that is not included. Now it appears that the E5's at least, you can use the red tipped cable which is included to clear the wrench.

Correct.  The 2 button dash let the owner reset the maintenance notice.  The 2015 was the only V7 I had.  Can't assist on the later bikes.

No wrench just a MAINT when starting changed by the buttons on the II and I think the III also.
The 6 speed in the III got an oil pump and uses 500CCof 80# the II doesn't have it and has 700CC of heavy oil as I recall. No wonder dealer mechanics get confused.

[kingoffleece]

Above is correct.  Been a while and I forgot.  It just indicated MAINT and then I reset it with the buttons.

I think the service wrench on the '26's needs to be reset by the dealer although there is a device being sold for about $300 that can do it. On mine, a '26, the screen is LCD so it is a faint grey and not very intrusive. I hardly notice it unless I am looking for it.
