Computer problem
2002 Dodge Neon Automatic

Car died while was being drove and will not start back up. Checked codes got code P0340-Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction - Replaced the Camshaft Position Sensor and the Crankshaft Position Sensor. Car still will not start, what else could be causing this? Reset computer and same code come back.

Did you check the wiring circuits to the sensors. ref voltage--ground-- signal. The cam and crank sensors use the same ref voltage and ground. I believe the cts also uses the same ground.

Ended up being timing belt. Mech said it was giving code because crankshaft was not turning because of timing belt. Thanks for responding though.
