Truck won't go, now i'm stuck in this job. What now?

[deWaardt]

I recently bought ETS2, i'm in my 4th job now, I started the engine, drove the truck to the parking place exit, stopped there, waited for traffic to pass by, and as soon as i hit the gas again to go it wouldn't move anymore.
It's in the gear, of the handbrake, but when i hit the gas the RPM's go high but the truck won't go anywhere.
It won't go reverse either, it's not stuck on something. It's standing completely clear.

What am i doing wrong? What can i do to make the truck move?

Did you switched the gear to neutral?
Or Activated the parking brake?

Has it just broken down? Hit F7 and route advisor will show the percent damage to your truck.

[deWaardt]

There's no damage to the truck, i have not switched it to neutral. It says gear 1. And when i click the bumper again (gamepad) it goes to gear 2, all the way up to gear 12, but the truck handles like it's not in the gear at all.

I think i'll just call service.

I called service and magically it's now going again.

I've had this happen exiting some places where there is a very slight hump or weird angle. If you stop at the wrong place, the drive wheels get stuck in the air. When this happens, if you go to an external camera, the drive wheels should be spinning. Calling service for a tow or loading from a recent save is the only way to fix it that I know of.

Sounds like you have hit a wall. Make a note of the town or city you are in and report it to scs or TSM.

This is what happens when you're riding the clutch.

Similar thing a few days ago. Stopped at a red light waiting. So, I press the gas, move a few meters and suddenly, can't move anymore. Engine running, good revs, gear shifting ok, nothing to report there. Made a small reverse, 1st gear, few meters and again, sudden stop.

Took me a few tries to finally exit the cab and see that my load was hitting the upper traffic light [...] Shame.

Stop riding the clutch.

lol this is so old post :D and yeah there is a glitch in the ground at some wierd angles , only thing you can try is detach, move, reverse in another angle, attach and try to move if not = rinse and repeat , good luck
