    At first I was thinking crank sensor, that's why I said it could be blocked from reading. I'm sure Vteckidd can give you a little more insight on it.

    Should be on the opposite side of the head from the cam gears . On the intake cam if I am not mistaken.

    cps should be on the cam shaft right BEFORE the cam gear. see if theres a wire over there that may have corroded or came unplugged. disconnect the battery for 30 min and see if the code comes back right away

    So it's on the opposite side of the head from the cam gears, like the majority of distributorless cars.

    Odds are the sensor just went bad. It's probably not picking up the cam magnet properly. Easy fix but the sensor won't be cheap.
