Mick-
I've had Pcs on 2 bikes and have had no issues. Everything I've read indicates that there can be problems but they are fairly rare.
Did you use dialectric grease on the connections?
Maybe you have a bad wire someplace?
All your ground connections are clean and tight?

Yeah, the chances of two going exactly the same bad are slim to none. Not saying they didn't go bad, but the real problem has to be in the wiring harness or other components.

More than 12k on mine rain, snow, hail, heat above 115* and cold below 30* with no issues.
If I had to do it over, I think I would buy one of the wide band O2 setups. By the time I paid for a good tune, I could have done that.
