Release spare button 3. No start

Release spare button 3 comes on display and machine will not start. If you keep trying it starts and works ok for the rest of the day.
Button 3 is for headlights. When the lift is working you can hold button 3 and it will start.
What is this "spare" button.
I've been to this machine 5 times and it always starts for me once I get there.

I have seen release button, but it usually says simply release button 3, not spare. You might need the CDF file reloaded by laptop. I have seen weird faults come up with a corrupt CDF file. This will need to be installed by a dealer with access to the manufacturers web site for the download.

Are there any codes showing on the display along with the release button? This is probably a defective DSC, ( display switch cluster).
