Chances are that it's the connectors. Mine had so many problems that CRH wiried them direct. No problems since.

The best way to find them is to take out the intake box to give you good access to them.

If you aren't sure about how to do that or don't feel like you can attempt it, then find someone who can.

Print this picture out, give it to them and point!

Have them unplug these connectors, clean the contacts real good and plug them back in. This would still be well worth it if it cures the issue.

I also had to remove a Revi to get to them, but hey how long has it been since you re-oiled the filter?
