Ok so my car had issues with the camshaft position sensor after I messed with the intake. I replaced it, then it started fine. Then a month later I messed with the intake box plugs again, no start. Same thing, I replaced the cps and it started and drove fine. Then it happened again, I replaced the cps and no start. I replaced it again and no start. I did that twice. Today I replaced the CRANKS POSITION SENSOR and it doesn't start. No spark. This is ridiculous, I finally got my car in decent enough shape after hitting a deer, got new hood, rad support, radiator, headlights, intake box. Please help me figure out wtf is wrong, do I need a new ecu???

It's not a timing belt issue either because it ran and started fine after I ht a deer and it was replCed before.

I got new radiator, wrong year. so I made a custom hose due to the plug being on the wrong side. The electrical plugs were in the same spots. I doubt that is the issue since i started the car with no radiator before fine.

Fuel pump seems fine, its audible and I can smell fuel. I checked all fuses and they're fine. Wtf is the issue please help.

 

Please help I need it for school and work soon and i have no nearby mechanics with a vagcom setup, I bought a obd cable for a laptop bit it doesn't work too well and can only detect an maf code when I know there's more than that.


At least point me in the right direction.

 

what motor?

 

96 12v V6. Shoot a PM to DOC_DEPALMA. he's been through the wringer with this issue on the same engine and may be able to give you pointers.

 

2.8 12v

 

Do you have spark?

 

No, I think I said it in the post

 

Yeah you did sorry about that man. So you replaced your Crank Position Sensor twice? Did you send it in or did you buy two? Since you said it started after the first one but not the second, I'm wondering if something is causing that sensor to fail?

 

I replaced the cam sensor not the crank about 4 times, each one fixed it except for the last replacement. So then I got the crank sensor replaced, which did nothing. That's 200 bucks in sensors, luckily the cam sensor has a 2yr warranty. What's causing it to fail is me messing with the intake plug wires. Not sure why

 

Sorry double post, but my friend got me an obdii code scanner which I'm going to try after work. And the sensor is definitely failing, u think the maf can be bad and cause no spark?
