    car wont run right... need help FAST!!!

    you posted 9 times in 3.5 hours on your own thread without following anyones suggestions. luckily for you, you found the problem. you'll most likely need to rewire the connector that goes to the cps. usually its the connector on the cps side... but check the wiring harness connector as well.
