Check all your grounds, make sure none of them are loose/corroded or anything, could be an issue there.

Thats all it takes is a rev up to fuel cutoff. However, you must follow the instructions on the tech 2 screen, wait for coolant temp to reach around 160, then rev when it asks. It will say if it was successful on th screen. Thats all there is to it.

ok i went back to dealer and did the crank relearn that didnt help the guy said that it is comon for the wires to break inside the insulation so even if they look good they could be broken i told him i checked the pins a & b and they light up.then he said mabey i got lucky and bent it the right way to make contact when i checked it cause we checked the pulse volts for the cam sensor through tech 2 with the car running and it stayed at 0 i guess next im gonna put a hole new connector at sensor and new wires all the way to the pcm thanks for all the help so far guys ill hit the souce of this problem some day lol

Default same problem, need solution

I now have the same problem after I cut out a connector that I was told it was for the EGR system. Turns out, it was a connector for the camshaft position sensor coming from the PCM. The connector was located up at the fuel rail near the #2 injector. After cutting it, the car had a hard time starting and the tach no longer worked. I reconnected the wires directly without the behemoth connector, cleared the code and I still have the same issues. Has anyone experienced this and what was the correct solution to getting it fixed?

Default Tach not working

My tach is not working a security light is on so what does that mean how do you fix?
