Default Crank Position Sensor Question

Could a bad crank position sensor cause the injector to not pulse on one bank? I burnt through the crank position sensor wires because they were touching a primary. I replaced the burnt part of the wires and the car still runs on one bank. Could the burnt wires have damaged the sensor in some way?

Go through the logical order of trouble shooting... do your injectors have the +12/ign available to them on that side? If a whole side is not firing, that source is common to them all and would be the first place that I'd look. Unplug an injector, turn key to on (not run) and check for +12 on one side (ground the other lead, it doesn't go on the other connector terminal when checking for +12)...

I am having a similar issue... my injectors have 12v key on... and nothing at all on the other wire, no ground, no ground while even cranking... Clould a bad CPS cause no spark as well as no injector pulse?
