Message the PTU and the connectors there below. I dont know if that could have set something going into the harness maybe whenever I hit a bump or something and caused the fire to start at the beginning of the coils.

I did have a problem earlier in the year when the negative battery cable kept coming out but we tied it down good and never came out again. I dont know maybe if the rotten old tie down cables could have done anything either but nothing their got burnt.

I was getting worried when I saw sparks coming from the PTU. Probably an open end on the Unit or something kept hitting something, but why after 6 months later?

I'll keep looking into it more and see what else could have been the reason so it wont happen again.

With a fried coil connector, could that have fried my coil too? At one point there was smoke coming everywhere from underneath the engine and plenum, and smoking shooting up from all the coils.
