Question Bizarre: PCM only works with engine off.

Hello fellow rennlisters,

I am having a bizarre issue on my 07 TT for the last few weeks. The radio, PCM , navi all work ...but ONLY when the engine is NOT running ( key in or out doesn't matter) as soon as I start the car the PCM shuts down and I just cannot get it to work.
I took out the fuses and put them back in and no change.

perplexed ! I am hoping the hive mind can help here.

i've seen 996/997's have odd issues like this

my hunch would be you need a durametric pro or piwis to reset or reprogram the pcm module
