They each have a gray wire going to them that is a 5 volt reference wire. Check that for 5 volts. I think that's how the 5 volt reference signal works but not certain.

Check it as close to the PCM as possible to rule out a bad wire. If you have the 5V ref. check the ground as well. If ground is good and no 5V, the step down transformer is probably bad on the board and you will probably need a new box.
