2023 Ducati DesertX Cannot Reset Annual Service Indicator

[Brian777]

Hello. I am able to connect to the bike. I was able to read ECUs (on DTC page). When I click the Annual Service Buttons or service date buttons, all I get is an audible error message. No pop up, no dialog box. Should I be able to reset the annual service/date? Thank you so much!

I am using this device purchased from Amazon:
ELM327 OBD2 USB Adapter for Windows, ELMconfig Scanner with MS CAN/HS CAN Switch for Scan F150 F250 Car and Light Truck Check Engine Light, Diagnosis on Windows with V1.5 Chip

This is my file info (MelcoDiag.exe.debug):

you need to register then the button will be activated

[Brian777]

Thank you for the response JP. I did register before attempting to reset and posting here. When connected and using the program the license button does not show anymore because I have the license and it is in the proper directory. The buttons are grey but they have a blue outline and I can click them. However I get the error tone.

Please let me know if I have misunderstood. What actions should I take next?

Here is a screenshot of the email with the license and showing it is in the directory.

c'est bon dans ta capture d'ecran mais pourquoi tu as
"lic not found"
"not registered"

ca veut dire le fichier cle.lic n'ertait pas là quand tu as fait ce rapport ou que le logiciel ne peut pas le voir .

[Brian777]

Thank you again for the response. My apologies, I copied my original file that I sent for the license request. A new file is below from connecting to the bike. It shows "registered"

What else can be done or attempted? What can I do? The buttons change color to light grey when I roll over them, apparently I can click them but after a few seconds I just get an error sound. No dialog box or error message.

Here is a 45 second screen recording of what happens:

it's not an error beep , it's just a beep i put once the process is done .
desert X is one of difficult bikes to reset , when i check the post i don't find any successfull resets

[Brian777]

Ok. Thank you for reviewing and the reply. Sounds like it would require further development and research then.

[jpl250rs]

yes and i see there is several electronics depends on the year , it' makes thing not easy

I have just had the same problem - same exact screens and 'Bing' but the service light is staying on.
Any further info?
This is on a 2016 X Diavel S.
I've edited this post to add the report info for reference.. as you can see I did try to reset the service and service date a few times. I am new to this software trying to help a friend who owns the bike, so there is definitely a chance I am doing something wrong but I have done this sort of thing successfully on my Triumphs. Anyway here is the report:
