Default Codes after heads and cam swap

Hey guys just did a heads and cam swap on my 98 formula after sending the pcm in for a mail tune to get it running I started it up and it's throwing code p0118 and p0122 I have changed both sensors as well, the temp sensor on the cluster isnt working either. I'm thinking a wire could have got damaged in the swap possibly a ground wire any ideas?

Probably need to verify the damage and fix it if necessary...

Sure; bc you seem to have reason to believe that. What's the reason?

For code p0118 make sure you plugged the coolant temp sensor back in on the drivers side head

I have everything plugged back up, reason I'm thinking it's a damaged wire is because the needle in cluster is also dead for the temp sensor as well codes was stating for tps= high circuit, coolant was low circuit. Also tried a relearn on tps still nothing

The 98 has the 3 wire temp sensor if i remember correctly so one wire goes to your gauge. It is the wires or the temp sensor is bad. Sometimes a new sensor isn't always good.
