thank you and i hope i can bring some knoledge to the table.
i looked to see if the magnet was there. the magnet is in one pice and still magnitized.
i just took it out for a road test and i am still geting the codes but i am not getting any cam errors trough gennises.
i have gone back and looked at all the wiring and the 8 pin plug that is under the passenger side carpet.
that was clean as a wistel.
i realy dont know what to think on this.

Looks like either a wiring problem or your down to trying a new ECM.
Good Luck
