So here is the situation, I replaced the old crank angle sensor with a brand new oem unit. However, the CEL P0335 is still showing up on my pocket logger, and my timing is getting pulled while driving. I started a bunch of threads on tuners and not one person has yet to help or even make a suggestion. You guys are pretty much the last hope I have for this car (1995 GST).

Background
* Replaced the old unit with an oem crank angle sensor
* CEL (P0335) still illuminated
* All timing marks line up
* Timing retarded from 5 to 3 at WOT, 2nd gear, running lean!
* Old crank angle sensor shows no sign of physical contact with the back plate, no crankwalk
* Car does not start when the crank angle sensor is disconnected

I suspect the crank angle sensor wire, ecu harness side, may have gone bad. How do I check the wire leading back to the ecu for continuity? I have a cheap digital multimeter btw. I also consulted with RRE and Glendale Mitsubishi about the problem, which leads me to believe the wire maybe damaged/separated under the insulator. While this problem could also be a hundred other things, does anyone have insight in to my problem?
