Have you tried driving it since this started or has it been parked? Is it an automatic or manual transmission?

Default Figured it out

I actually figured it out a couple months ago. A wire had gotten pushed out of the back of the fuse panel goin to the main "engine" fuse or somethin like that. Kinda feel like a D.A for not finding it before i put all that money in it, but hey live and you learn right?

I had installed an airdog and it runs into the fuse block. I guess when i hooked it up the first time i pushed the wire out. Kind of a one in a million thing i guess

I have bun chasing this same issue for a week. Same symptoms: no tach, a/c, O/D or torque lock up, alt isn't charging. I first swapped out the Ess. With proper gapping it still hasn't fixed the problem. I started chasing other sensors and found my tps had some torn wires at the connector. Replaced that with no luck. I am receiving signal and power at both sensors 8.8 and 3.8 respectively. I have also been checking grounds and continuity wherever I can. Does anyone have any advise!? I'm a patient person but this is getting old. Would the PCM be bad and still be sending power and signal?
