After coupling up, 

the following mes-

sage appears:

To open the fifth 

wheel coupling

The fifth wheel 

coupling is not 

locked or no lock 

is detected.

The coupling is not closing or not 

closing completely.

Carry out a functional check of the fifth wheel coupling 

(see Section 5.2 and the installation and operating 

instructions for JSK 36/JSK 37 and JSK 40/JSK 42, 

Section 3 "Operation" and Section 4 "Maintenance and 

testing" on the JOST website at www.jost-world.com).
Check the magnet and sensor on the fifth wheel coupling 

handle (see Section 5.2 and 5.3.1).
Replace worn and faulty components (see Section 6 and 

repair instructions JSK 36/JSK 37 and JSK 40/JSK 42 on 

the JOST website at www.jost-world.com).

Locking sensor cannot be switched. Check the magnet and sensor on the fifth wheel coupling 

handle (see Section 5.2 and 5.3.1).
Replace worn and faulty components (see Section 5 and 

repair instructions JSK 36/JSK 37 and JSK 40/JSK 42 on 

the JOST website at www.jost-world.com).

Locking sensor or supply line 

(cable) to the sensor faulty.

Check the sensor, cable and handle or trap for damage 

(see Section 5.2).
Carry out a functional check of the sensor (see Section 

5.3.1).

After coupling up or 

on driving off, the 

following message 

appears:

To check the 

fifth wheel 

coupling

Check the fifth wheel 

coupling and open it 

if necessary.

Fifth wheel coupling 

locked or locking 

detected, but no 

kingpin detected.

Wear on the lock and/or the 

kingpins too excessive.

Check the wear dimensions on the fifth wheel coupling 

and if necessary the semi-trailer (see Section 5.2 and the 

installation and operating instructions for JSK 36/JSK 37 

and JSK 40/JSK 42, Section 3 "Operation" and Section 4 

"Maintenance and testing" on the JOST website at 

www.jost-world.com).
Replace worn and faulty components. Adjust the fifth wheel 

coupling's locking play (see Section 6 and repair instruc-

tions JSK 36/37 and JSK 40/JSK 42 on the JOST website 

at www.jost-world.com).

Kingpin sensor setting not correct.

Adjust the kingpin sensor as per the repair instructions 

(see Section 6).

Sensor or supply line (cable) to the 

sensor faulty.

Check the sensor and cable for damage (see Section 5.2).
Carry out a functional check of the kingpin sensor 

(see Section 5.3.2).
Replace worn and faulty components (see Section 5).

The sensor's functional surface is 

badly soiled with deposits. 

Clean the sensor's functional surface (see Section 5.2).

The following mes-

sage is displayed:

Fifth wheel 

coupling 

sensing faulty

Clean the sensor.

The status of the sen-

sor-enabled fifth 

wheel coupling is not 

being recognised cor-

rectly.

One or more of the fifth wheel 

coupling sensors did not switch or 

are permanently switched, e.g. as 

a result of contamination with metal 

wear in front of the sensors' func-

tional surfaces.

Clean the functional surface of the kingpin sensor and 

semi-trailer detection sensor (see Section 5.2).

Clean the sensor or 

check the fifth wheel 

coupling!
Or check the semi-

trailer sensor!
Or check the fifth 

wheel kingpin!

Sensor or supply line (cable) to the 

kingpin or semi-trailer detection 

sensor faulty.

Check the sensor and cable for damage (see Section 5.2).
Check the sensor function (see section 5.3).
Renew worn and defective components 

(see Section 6).

Check the fifth wheel 

coupling sensor!

Locking sensor or supply line 

(cable) to the sensor faulty.

Check the sensor and cable for damage (see Section 5.2).
Carry out a functional check of the kingpin sensor 

(see Section 5.3.2).
Replace worn and faulty components (see Section 6).
