Message	:the PTU (Power Transistor Unit) gets a signal from the computer telling the coil when to fire. The early style PTUs were recalled because of premature failure do to heat, they have aluminum tops, looks like this. :[ http://dta-motorsport.com/used/ptu.jpg ] :And the newer style looks like this. :[ http://www.z32photoguide.com/ptu.html ] :the CAS (Crank Angle Sensor) tells the computer where the Crankshaft is so that it knows what part of the engine cycle is going on. seen here. :[ http://www.z32photoguide.com/images/3sensorloc.jpg ] :I would check your connections at both the PTU and CAS... and to be honest you seem to be having the same problem I am having, but those where the things everyone has said to check first. Ok thanks alot for the help i'll try it out
