    Series 2 PTU

    Hey Pete

    Was thinking of getting a series 2 ptu but first I will relocate the Series 1 ptu at a different place on the car somewhere cooler and see if I have any issues.

    Not really keen on getting anything thats got to do with electrical second hand don't know how reliable they would be. An item like this I would prefer new, for the sake of reliability.

    Let us know what interest you have and your opinion about second hand Series 2 ptu. If my series 1 ptu fails after relocation and if you still have the interest I would let you know

    I would be interested too, provided they are tested and come with some sort of warrenty if they fail with in a selected time frame.

    Not a bad price either.

    I've never heard of one failing either.

    Yes I would offer a 6 month warranty on these units.

    Pete :)

    Only thing I've heard of with Series 2 PTU's

    are that the connector pins (where they clip onto the factory wiring loom plug) can sometimes need to be reseated to make a proper connection but that would happen only once as you fit them and is a quick and permanent fix (just pushing the pin so it makes proper contact with the other side).

    Never heard of an internal failure on any series 2 PTU's...

    So this is probably a good deal if you can't afford the extra hundred extra or so for a new one.

    In any case, ANYONE with an existing Series 1 WILL require a replacement PTU at some stage (as all the S1 PTU's would seem to have a 99% failure rate at some stage) so any opportunity to get a series 2 (either new or 2nd hand) will be beneficial...

    Doing it NOW is a preventative maitenance convenience I'd recommend instead of breaking down on the side of the road and being stuck with a failed S1...

    I'll find out if they come with the adaptor.

    looks like I will only have a few available. I will know the exact number soon.

    so what I'll do once the number has been confirmed, is post a new thread and the first people to reply IN THE THREAD will get the PTUs.

    PTU

    Interested, Assuming comes with harness and warranty, otherwise $270 from Caz would be better value.

    Hi Pete,

    I'm interested if they come with the adaptor. I'll try to get the adaptor plugs hard-wired in at a Tech Day. You did a great job at the last Tech Day John !!! (Z-ster) :) :) :)

    Cheers,

    Peter
