      Oh no I’m sorry to hear that. Must be very frustrating. In this instance you’ll probably want to take it to a shop for an official diagnostic. Could be a circuit issue, a module issue, or something overlooked when the timing job was performed. I would use scope data to review the cams and crank waveform data and compare it to a know good as a start. Hope everything works out for you 👍

      @@projet2907 As long as they’re of acceptable quality there shouldn’t be any issue with solder sleeves. I’m sure there are plenty of debates around which is better. Crimps can be a really strong mechanical connection, but unless you have calibrated crimpers, your crimp strength can very from crimp to crimp. This is where you can start to get into IPC 620 Cable and Wire harness standards. As long as you have a strong connection, that has weatherproofing, you should be fine.

Timing codes are common and I know a lot of people probably get their pcm scanned at an auto store, buy a new sensor or solenoid, throw it in, and then are really puzzled why it hasn’t fixed the issue. If you’re going to diagnose a timing issue, it’s not going to be a one minute short. Going to be a lot of homework.
