The Cam Shaft and Crank Sensor was bad, and when I kept trying to start it it backfired and threw the timing off they told me, had those replaced and the timing reset and she's good as new!04sxt2.0 wrote:Cam shaft and crank shaft position sensor if the car wont spark at all changed the cam sensor, because the sensor can not read the groves on the car for the firing of the coil.... if you did the timing right it shouldn't of jumped.. thats just my thoughts...
It's broken.

My cousin said that in most of the classes he goes to for stuff like this, they almost always say that the DCx cars don't always throw codes when the cam/crank sensors go bad. It's just something funky that our cars do so I wouldn't rule them out quite yet.

Is it an ATX? Because if it is, shifting it is a bad idea.
