Hey folks.. we have around 20 e60z's that are all coming up on 10,000 hours and code 51 seems to coming up.

most offen after a battary change.

One guy in the shop thinks its the PTC ( i call it the red advile on the line contactor ) he has had luck cooling them with safeclean and the truck starts again.

The other guy has had luck changing the line contactor.

I think the PTC is failing becasue of the line contactor failing.

Is this a problem any one else has come across?
