I believe its IMS FAULT 81 to be precise, and that happens when you roll the truck down a gradient, without the engine or ignition turned on, which then causes the tachograph to pick up movement when its not properly powered on.

Simply put, you free-wheeled down an incline (moved a bit in traffic, or rolled the unit in a yard) without firing her up :slight_smile:

A more technically detailed explanation can be found here (although you will need to translate from german) dtco-user.com/errorcodes/2.0 … de&site=81

It basically means same thing, error in communication in vehicle movement (The additional independent motion signal is missing or is not available.)… Basically caused by ‘rolling’ :smiley:
