If so has anyone come across a charger that refuses to stop charging? It will not show the green maintenance light, it just keeps on over charging.
Thanks
I have the same problem with the charger continuously charging. I just got the charger exchanged by Ducati, and guess what, after 3 days the new one still has the yellow light and is still charging. I am wondering if for some reason, the Scrambler is not fully compatible with the charger.
Why would you charge a battery continuously?
I have the same charger. It works very well and only cost £13.99. It is far better than the useless and unreliable Oximiser that it replaced for just over a quarter of the cost.Here is mine, bought from Lidl (a well known German discount magazine here in Europe).
Very cheap (€ 17) and effective.
I also bought the adapter (€15) for Ducati and made a one way connector to connect the adapter or the stock pliers.
It works very well for car and bike battery

Know anyone else with a different charger to try? Then you can say for sure it's charger or bike...Update - switched charger to direct battery connection and yellow light was still on after 24 hours. So tried the charger with direct to battery connection on my 748, and after 24 hours the yellow light is still on.
Rang Ducati Leeds and they are contacting Ducati uk about it. I'll let you know what happens
So we have both connected the charger through the service socket on our scramblers with no joy .Update - switched charger to direct battery connection and yellow light was still on after 24 hours. So tried the charger with direct to battery connection on my 748, and after 24 hours the yellow light is still on.

I think you're right with your new way to finally figure it out .Know anyone else with a different charger to try? Then you can say for sure it's charger or bike...
