Thanks for the reply, there is some messed up looking wiring near the sensor and looks like the previous owner might of done something to the wires around the area, im going to try and see if I can find a whole new wiring harness at a junkyard

Make sure you get the right year harness because the fuel injection plugs and some of the transmission plugs wil be different from year to year. Goodluck! Glad I could help out.

I would check timing belt and marks
also use a scanner and check data
looking for if the cam and crank in SYNC
See if crank and came is out of SYNC
PCM will not open the injectors or will flood the engine
when CAM sensor is disconnected the PCM will go in to limp mode
allowing engine to start

when Disconnecting the CAM sensor and engine start believe it or not that is a sign of the CAM and Crank sensor are in a good condition and working fine

check that timing we have seen it and fix it many times over and over
good luck

let me know

Timing is one thing I havent checked because its a pain in the with aneon. I pretty much checked all those other things, but how do u check if cam and crank are in snyc? Cause I was thinking that and my buddy told me that all u do is unplug battery for awhile and have ignition on, then turn ignition off, hook battery back up, turn key three times, wait bout' 15 minutes then without turning key off try to start, but it did seem tto do anything, he said it relearns itself, is that right thanks

Timing is the problem in this case
to check if cam and crank are in SYNC
I use a scanner tool
simple hooking up the scanner to OBDII
read data look for the cam and crank if in sync

it not a matter of reprogramming or relearning
