Not sure what initially caused your issue but try throwing a G92 E0 into your start gcode right after homing and also after any purge line you may have setup.
I've encountered this same error when trying to recover failed prints by restarting them at the failed layer. If you don't tell the extruder it should already be some distance through the print, it throws out the exact same error. Since you're starting at '0' it needs to be told that.
Thanks for the suggestion. Just tested by adding G92 E0 right after the PRINT_START and PURGE_LINE macros and it still has the same error at the same spot; right as it goes around the circle part of the elbow on the second layer.
Might be something wrong with the slicer. Try a different slicer and if that doesn't work try a different file. I've had Cura updates break my gcode in the past.
You might manually look through the gcode file and see if you see anything out of the ordinary at that layer.
I was having a similar problem with my printer as well, and this is what solved it. I wasn't able to print 2 things back-to-back without restarting the firmware first.
