my problem might be with the sensor wires because the harness is disintegrated and i don't know which wires goes to which terminal goes on both the cam and crank sensors.

This sounds like the crankshaft angle sensor or the fuel pump has gone out, when you turn the key to the on position without cranking the engine over can you hear the fuel pump run in the tank for 5 seconds? These guides should help us fix it.
