E Procedure to disable immobilizer engine block through throttle twistgrip 1) Turn the key to ON and fully open throttle. Keep it open. The EOBD warning light turns off after 8 seconds. 2) Release the throttle as soon as the EOBD warning light turns off. 3) EOBD pilot light will flash. Count a number of flashes corresponding to the first figure of the code, open full throttle and keep the position for 2 seconds, then release. In this way the input of one figure is acknowledged, EOBD pilot light comes on and stays on for 4 seconds. Carry out the same procedure for the following figures of the code. Failure to do so will cause the EOBD pilot light to flash 20 times, then it will stay on. This means that the procedure has been aborted. It will be necessary to turn the key to OFF and restart from point (1). 4) Repeat operations described in point (3) up to the last figure of the code. 5) When you release the throttle, if the code was inserted in the correct way, you can have two situations, A or B: A) the EOBD light starts flashing to indicate that engine is enabled. The light goes off after 4 seconds, or if the engine runs faster than 1000 rpm. B) the CODE light flashes until engine rpm stays below 1000, or until the vehicle is restarted. 6) Should the code NOT be entered correctly both the EOBD and CODE lights stay on and it is possible to repeat the procedure starting again from point 2 for as many times as necessary. 22 Note Should the throttle twistgrip be released before the set time, the warning light turns on again. It is then necessary to bring the key to OFF and restart the procedure from point (1).
