Angry help please, problems after cam install

Okay, i've installed a TSP cam, and afterwards, I'm getting a Camshaft position high, and low voltage code. this only happens when i get on it above 50% throttle. and i've changed the sensor thinking maybe i hit it or nicked it or something changing the cam. any ideas guys? the car still isn't tuned but i'm told htis needs taken care of first.

Also other problems, there's lots on this POS I've got a Skip shift eliminator, but i get a code coming up for it. also a clutch input switch code, and reverse inhibitor code. as far as i can tell there is nothing wrong with any of this stuff, i've gone over the wiring harness from front to back, nothings cut, no grounds are off that i can find. could i possibly have a bad computer?

Thanks in advance, Nick

If it was a bad computer it would have been doing this before the install. It's gotta be something you did. Check the fuses and check the areas of wiring that you disconnected/touched to make sure they are all making contact and nothing is broken off.

Hmm, that's a different ball game then. I would have try and get in contact with someone with LS1edit to see if they can look in the PCM and see anything internally wrong with it. Otherwise you might want to send it off and have someone check it out, assuming you are 100% sure that it's not a wiring issue.

Sounds like you forgot to plug in some connector on your trans. If you leave one or more of those connections undone it will set off a bunch of different codes like those.
Check that first...Check for pinched or cut wires or fluid/dirt in the connection for the camshaft position sensor.

Also..it could be a tuning glitch. Is your car a 98? My 98 will throw knock sensor low and high voltage codes when the LTFTrims get way out of wack, like after a cam swap. After it's tuned correctly, no more codes. Weird...maybe it's just a 98 thing...
