Driving home the motor shut down. I plugged in A code reader it said to replace camshaft sensor which I did. Car still won't start. Plugged in code reader again this time no codes. Replaced fuel filter and fuel pump still won't start.

Hello,

Did you check to make sure you are getting the correct fuel pressure? It should be around 35 - 40 PSI.
Have check to make sure you are getting spark?
I have attached basic diagnostic procedure as well as fuel pressure check procedure.
