Hello,
I have a problem with my Roadster namely, it can not be started and does not load.
Two errors are displayed:
Communication Problem Power Reduced ID:56
Powertrain Problem Service Required ID:1496
What could be wrong?
Is the problem really in PEM?
 
Hello,
I got the same problem. I connected my 1,5 Roadster to 32A charger and after 1 minute I got the messages:
Communication Problem Power Reduced ID:56
Park Lock Problem Vehicle May Be Free Rolling ID:61
The car stopped charging and now it can't be started and charged. After turning the key to "start" position I got another messages:
Powertrain Problem Service Required ID:1496
backup Power Supply Service requied ID:420.
I tried to "reset" the car by disconnetion of orange plug in ESS. Nothing happened... The car is still out of order, I can't either drive or charge.
Would you, please give me some ideas?

Where are you based ? England UK ? .. Tesla at Brooklands have expertise (ask for Sam) and there are other independent technicians.

Wiki has some, codes: Roadster VDS Messages
I recommend a deep Search on this forum to find a wealth of knowledge, and solutions.
