1995 plymouth neon---DEAD

[JuniorBII]

My car just crapped out on me on the interstate. I checked the code and it came up with 1254231355. I checked the codes and it tells me all kinds of stuff. Is it even worth doing anything with?!? Or should i just scrap this heap of crap?!?

If your car is dead won't start, the code 54 is most likely responsible. It means the computer don't know what cylinder is fireing. It either means the camshaft position sensor is bad or the lead from the distributor has no signal.
If your car does start, but runs rough, replace the sensors for the 13 and 23 codes. They deal with how much gas to give the engine.

12 Battery or computer recently disconnected
13* MAP sensor or vacuum line may not be working
23* Incoming air temperature sensor may be bad
54 camshaft sensor/distributor timing

just wondering if you happened to get your car fixed? I just had the exact same thing happen to me tonight. I got the codes 37, 54,14,24,21,43 from mine. I have no idea what to do with this car! And don't have the money to guess anymore. Any help is appreciated

If your car won't start, it's most likely the crank sensor. It should start with a bad cam sensor, it'll just run really rough.
