Newcomer / Intro srv power limit exceeded modules disabled

Don't understand why this has happened and don't seem to be able to do anything about it. I am at the crystalline shard site collecting engineering raw mats. When I just collected a material and was going to collect another when in my Srv came up with 'power limit exceeded modules disabled' and then oxygen depleted in a time limit. This seem to happen for no reason and is the first time I have experienced this. So I board ship to see if Srv needed repairing then redeployed but still the same. Has anyone else experienced this? and is there anything that can be done? I can't disable anything because almost everything is disabled, and unlike in a ship you can reboot/repair but in a Srv you cant.
 
Since you can't reconfigure the SRV (so all the modules will always draw the same power, and the power plant is up to that), my guess would be that you ran out of fuel for the SRV, or your SRVs power plant is damaged. In the first case, you'll either need to dock at a station or synthesize SRV fuel (right hand panel, inventory tab, synthesis). For the second case, docking at the ship should have helped. Do you happen to carry corrosive (thargoid) items?

Could you post a screenshot of that "power limit exceeded" message?
 
Check the right side panel to see if your modules are damaged - you obviously aren't out of fuel, if you got back the ship, so that's the only thing I can think of.
 
No, you are out of fuel. When you run out of fuel in the srv it puts you on oxygen. The ship doesnt refuel the srv so thats why it was the same when you redeployed.

Source: have driven 2k km in the srv across 2 planets.
But... how did he get back to the ship..
 
I didn't realize Saud Kruger had a version of the FDL out.
"Early models were built by Zorgon Peterson, but more recently, limited numbers have been upgraded by Saud Kruger in a rare collaboration, resulting in even more lavish creations, without spoiling the original design and specification requirements."

But where did you get one, he asked, knowing full well that you're basically in a sponsorship deal.

Thank you, yes I think that I had run out of fuel, it threw me as I had not long since synthesized basic fuel, and didn't realize how quickly basic fuel runs out. It was stating I was out of fuel but I thought that was caused by power failure because it wasn't very long ago I had refueled. Thank you all again you live and learn lol.

If you're just exploring around and not doing missions or other combat-ey stuff and you want to last longer on basic, you can turn off your shields. They don't protect from ground collisions anyway and they eat up quite a lot of fuel.
