Hi

I'm think there is a filter in the g-box somewhere. Maybe that can be the problem.
I got the message a few times, that was due to a fautly battery.

I would check the battery first, then have the filter replaced.

As Karel says ............... Battery first ... low voltage can cause all sorts of Weird problems Especially related to "Gearbox Fault" messages
