I had to put a fresh motor in my truck, I finally got it in, got it running, and seen that my cam position sensor wires were showing and bare so I started messing with them while it was running, the truck shut off and won't start back, OBD2 won't connect, I changed CPS,Crank position and Coil pack and still not getting a start, no power on the harness. No fuses blown, where should I start? Is it possible the computer is fried or no? Any help would highly be appreciated please and thank you.
 
Do you have power at the OBDII connector? I think it uses the same fuse as the cigarette lighter on some models, so it's prone to having a blown fuse.
