Check the position of the starter selonoid cable. Its possibly running in the same channel as the crank angle sensor wiring. Remove the starter selonoid wire out of this channel and re rout it away from the crank angle sensor wiring. The high voltage current from the starter selonoid, is inducing this voltage into the crank angle sensor wiring.
