[s-cars] not the code I expected

Before you replace the CPS, check the continuity between the three wires, 
when it is not starting.  Also check the resistance. Compare the readings 
you get with a new sensor.  This can be done with a multimeter, at the 
connector under the fuel rail.  This might save you the time to replace the 
sensor if it is good.
