Ck.engine lt. came on while driving serpentine belt had previously fallen off several times. Changed pulley. Now car cranks but will not start. No power at injectors. Could it be the PCM went bad . What else could it be?

put in a new crank sensor, cam sensor, tried another PCM and coil, still does not start. Checked all fuses and relays and checked fusible link at distr. box. Tried putting key in door to reset Nothing I tried made any difference. Checked codes with ignition and the only code that came up was 54 which says no cam signal at PCM. Before I switched PCM's code 42 came up which say's an open or shorted condition detected in auto shut down relay circuit

Ohm check wiring from cam sensor to pcm see if wiring is an issue. So code 42 no longer comes up?
Just 54 so check wiring to pcm.
