on my sonoma the crankshaft sensor sits right under the temp control sensor and if you hit the wires or the crankshaft end where the wires go in it can break or should i say hair line fracture so check to see if crank sensor is still getting power and that crank shaft sensor didnt get damaged during your other installation. see it happen before
