Error "Temperature heated bed switched off"

Every so often I am getting the following error in Octoprint:

Your printer's firmware reported an error. Due to that OctoPrint will disconnect. Reported error: Temperature heated bed switched off. MINTEMP triggered ! - // action:cancel

When I start the print, the bed heats up to the proper temperature and the 9 point calibration is performed.  But after that the MK3 screen shows garbage letters and the error above shows in Octoprint.

What is the nature of this error?  Thanks in advance.

Have you installed the latest FW (3.9.1)?
Try to heat the bed manually and move it back and forth when the temperature is reached. If an error is reported here, you have a problem with the bed wires (loose contact, break, plug contacts...). Octoprint reacts correctly to the printer error message.

I have not installed 3.9.1.

I heated the bed up to 75C and sat there for 2min moving the bed back and forth and no error.  I noticed a drop in temp by 1C a few times but that was it.  So it does not appear to be the bed wires.

If all wires and connections are ok, a firmwareupdate to 3.9.1 might help, otherwise I would contact the Prusachat.

I'm printing something now but as soon as that's done the firmware update is next on my agenda.  I've gone 3 prints now without the error, but before it was happening almost every other print.  Once a print starts it finishes no problem.
