Sifa Issues (all Of A Sudden)

I just tried playing a BR101 service from Leipzig to Dresden (standard BR101 as there is no Expert timetable).

I had about 4 instances of SIFA Zwangsbremsung for absolutely no reason. I had been pressing the SIFA pedal every 30 seconds, the SIFA light had not illuminated, yet I kept getting SIFA Zwangsbremsung.

This has never happened before, so I am scratching my head?????

 

I had that Problem yesterday. i would love try to recreate it but Sadly TSW doenst work for me anymore since the update

 

I was driving a BR101 service between Leipzig and Dresden (Steam PC). I activated SIFA and PZB/LZB using CTR-Enter and SHFT-Enter. After a few minutes driving under LZB I got a sudden SIFA Zwangsbremsung out of nowhere. I pressed the pedal and it cleared after some initial breaking only to happen again seconds later. This happened again after about 10 minutes.

I then gave up

 

Are you sure it was SIFA and not one of those 1000hz magnets? I was just doing a 411 service on Dresden-Leipzig and kept getting penalty braked for seemingly no reason, then I noticed the little 1000hz circle at the bottom right HUD was illuminating when it happened. This was odd because I was not getting the 1000hz Acknowledge! warning message on the HUD at the top right. I ended up SPAD'ing and reloaded a checkpoint and the top right warnings started showing again.

Don't know if that's related but I can't remember having this issue before.

The voice definitely said “SIFA Zwangsbremsung” and then pressing the pedal immediately released the braking.
The SIFA light hadn’t come on before (I had been regularly pressing the pedal) and it happened again about five seconds later

 

Just re-ran a similar trip with the BR101, and had no issues this time.

 

Just a question here:
Have you maybe pressed the SIFA Button for too long without letting it go?
That would trigger a SIFA-Zwangsbremsung and it does not show the white pedal nor does it warn you with sound "SIFA" before braking...
