What led you to the cam sensor in the first place? The only cam sensor code I could find was code 54, no cam sync signal at the pcm. I'd have to check the wiring and connectors at the cam sensor and computer. The code doesn't tell you what to replace only that the systyem thinks there is a problem on that circuit. Any shared ref voltage and ground circuits will need to be checked.

Are you using quality parts?
