Low air pressure
Understand waiting for air to build but... forever? Doesn't seem to go away. I think I remember the problem in Euro truck but don't remember the fix.

Do you press the gas pedal while waiting? You should.

I dont run an automatic transmission, so putting it into nuetral and gassing it a bit makes it go away pretty fast.

So how does a person fix this low air pressure in an automatic transmission? It has happened to me 4-5 times since launch and the only thing that works is to save and restart the game.

Turn the engine on. Rev it for minute or so and you should be good to go. Keep your gearbox in neutral of course.

I put it in neutral and rev it for like 30 seconds. They your pressure is built up, not fully, but enough to get you going

I use automatic transmission. Haven't found neutral yet--haven't needed it.

Huh? You either shift to drive (go forward), neutral or reverse (go backward). Neutral is in between Drive and Reverse. You will see N in place of the gear number on your dashboard.

Doesn't it depend on the type he choosed either simple auto or real auto. From my understanding there is no neutral in simple auto.

Hmmm, You may be right. I haven't thought of that. It still should show N on the dashboard if he's not moving forward or backward. I haven't used this type of transmission. Always used the real automatic.

The only time I've seen this happen is if I've been holding the brake (maybe had the parking brake on) when I started resting.

So I've simply just put the truck in neutral, turned it off, and resting without any brakes on.

I tried real automatic and my truck wouldn't move. Couldn't figure out the problem so went back to simple auto.

"Left Shift" for forward and "left Ctrl" for reverse or neutral.

I'll give it a try, but I prefer to use the control pad as much as possible.

If your truck was reving it's because it was in Neutral. I myself use H-Shifter nice to be able to shift to what ever gear you want especially to slow down.
