2000 Chrysler Cirrus 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

My 2000 Cirrus with a 2.4l DOHC will not start, engine cranks. Using a scanner I pulled two codes P0118 and P1489. I has a used motor in it. I put new Cam and Crank sensors in, has a new fuel pump and filter. Checked fuel pressure I have adequate pressure. I am at a loss of where to go from here. Recently brought to my attention my father was messing with the ECT sensor and after that motor stopped running. Thanks for any help you can offer.

My 2000 Cirrus with a 2.4l DOHC will not start, engine cranks. Do below

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine atleast 3/16 away from ground-have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, coil's resistances, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
