Crankshaft sensor wiring?

Thanks for your response. Would foil Matic tape be the same thing as a substitute? Or not? I'm thinking it may not work because I know foil conducts I think, right? Wouldn't that be doing the opposite? If so, that's a big no am I correct in thinking? Or would it work I've been trying to find some shielded cable somewhere but guess I may have to order some if there is nothing I can use in place of of the foil is so thin it breaks up and falls apart super easy.

Okay, is there a drain wire outside insulation on this harness or no?

Hi Joe, thanks for. Response I appreciate it. Here's where I am with this car. Like I previously said wiring from ECU to CKP harness messed up l, I've done some researching, learning and good old trial and error about the wiring and I've got it running for about 2 weeks but is currently broke down again after trying to crimp correctly with connectors didn't have it done well or correctly so trying to get it done right. IV learned this is a shielded wire and is precise with signals/ interference. Now I'm still trying to learn how sensitive/important shielding actually is (honestly I hate this VW and as soon as I get some money getting diff car!). This car is very finicky. Now outside the shielding I'm trying to figure out if there is a drain wire that runs outside the shielding? And if so, it needs to touch outside if shielding without touching any other wire, correct? Is there one? The wiring is so small it's hard to tell also can I use a wire to substitute connecting on the insulating shielding or is it important do I need top. Was looking into replacement for shielding foil but I guess there is none can't use foil or foil matic tape. Since trying to get it right car decided to stall out and battery drained at end of block so just walked home. Can I get away with just connect w, br, bl wires? Will never again buy a VW, not my fav. Thanks.

Okay, thanks for clearing that up. The car is currently stuck at park. I feel it might be a combination of things. I feel like I got this sensor right or connected decent because it's not pulling a code for that any longer. So, I think that's addressed but I turn the car on when it's okay for a second the battery light will then come on and the EPC light will come on, it'll bog down act like it wants to stall out completely, but then the majority of the time it'll smooth back out like it all of a sudden. Just recognize and goes back to smooth out some of the time. Then some of the times like this morning it just kept repeatedly actually stalling back out and then had to restart it again. Extremely rough idle. The only two codes I'm getting are the mass air flow sensor circuit low, so I just unplug that but I'm going to still should run I would think, correct? And one for the O2 sensor which makes sense because the cat on that car has been deleted it does currently have the exhaust leak. I had fixed the flex pipe and then they told me that the Catalytic Converter was clogged up because some of the folks probably went in there and clogged it up at a muffler shop. So, I had paid them $160.00 to weld and hopefully quite down the car because when I bought it, the only thing wrong with it was it was really loud because it had that tear in the flex pipe. And then I was going down the street and literally the back of the muffler blew off the car I heard it and I felt it and it got 10 times louder of course, and that is currently not off there. They said they could try to weld it back on for $60.00, they said that it looked like it was really thin the metal that maybe somebody had welded it before I'm really honestly not sure I don't know anything about welding I've never messed with that. Long story short there is going to be an O2 sensor code that's to be expected. I'm really not sure where to go from being fed up with this car honestly at this point. Any suggestions or opinions on where to go from here or welcome. Thanks

I'm sorry I wasn't very clear. I literally meant it was stuck at a park like a public park not that it's relevant my bad. LOL well at the moment it's not running it won't say running for more than literally a second and then shuts off so can't check it. And just to clarify I have a straight pipe on the car, but the back of it blew off so it's open and loud. But it shouldn't cause it not to run. Quick question if the problem was that I didn't isolate the wires correctly and it was the crankshaft position sensor was picking up other signals are getting confused that's what that throw a code or not if that was the issue, I would think it would but I'm not positive on that. Maybe I didn't isolate them enough, the wiring is the only thing I can really think of at this point.
