Hi and welcome.
Translates as Belt Defective.
Marc will be able to advise on changing the display language, if needed, and the fault.
The sudden appearance of unwanted french letters from the dashboard can be somewhat inconvenient.

How many times have I heard that! :rofl2:
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Is the engine turning over at all?
Did the engine stop whilst driving or would it just not start?
The language resetting back to French is often a sign of a dead or weak battery, has the time on the clock changed too?
