No Start Help, Replaced Crank Position Sensor

So my Crank Position Sensor went bad, i wasnt getting power to the fuel pump and no spark. Replaced the Crank Position Sensor and it started right up for about 30 seconds then it shut down and wont start back up. I am now getting power to the fuel pump and fuel to the fuel rail but not getting spark again. Has anyone ever had issues after replacing the Crank Position Sensor? Could another sensor have been wiped out?

Did you buy an OEM Mitsubishi sensor? Or a downtown one?

check to make sure your getting power to the coil packs. If you have 12 volts sitting at the coil packs, but no signal, your not going to fire the coil packs. You could also check your ignition fuse

How do I test if it’s getting a signal? It is getting 12V at the coil pack, I also just put in a new Cam Position sensor today but that didn’t fix the issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated

disable the anti-theft before wasting more money. Thats usually the cause

The stock anti-theft? The immobilizer is currently disabled if that’s what you mean. Please let me know as I’m willing to try anything at this point. The weird part is it ran for about 30 seconds after installing the crank position sensor. Also thank you

Have you removed, inspected, and re-installed your crank sensor again?

just meter at the coil pack pin for voltage. I can't remember what the value is but it jumps on the meter, then you know your getting signal to the ecu to generate spark.

I have and it is still working properly, also before installing the new Crank sensor I was not getting power to the fuel pump. I am now getting power to the pump and fuel to the fuel rail.

I will try that today, there are 3 wires going to the coil pack plug. when starting i am getting power to 1 wire and the other 2 are grounded. I will check what the voltage is and re post. Also thank you to everyone posting as i am dead in the water right now and really need help. THANK YOU

one is power to the coil, one is ground for the coil. The other pin is signal to fire the coil. check all three. do you have a schematic for the evo?

I do not have a schematic, if anyone wants to post one I would appreciate it. So while it's cranking only one of the 3 pins gets power the other 2 stay grounded. Does that mean I'm not getting a signal from the ECU?

Did you do a spark test to make sure you are not getting spark?
