Default 04 dodge neon 2.0 code p0344

I have a 04 dodge neon I need help with I have the p0344 code I changed the cam sensor twice and looked at the wires everything looks fine it will start up fine and idle fine but when I go to drive sometimes the engine with shut off or won’t let rpms go past 25k and suggestion ps I have no power to the ignition starter wire so I bypassed it with a push button don’t know if that with cause problems but worth a shot any answers are greatly appreciated this is my only car and I need it fixed asap

Are you using OEM sensors?

Sometimes only OEM sensors will work.

Bump:
Well Travis its been over a month, so how is the trouble shoot going, 366 curious minds would like to know????
If your still working the problem, maybe have a look-see read here, https://troubleshootmyvehicle.com/ch...e-cam-sensor-1 as the site gives a rather good trouble shooting scenario for both the cam & crank sensors. The P0344 code is more for a intermittent circuit problem, so sounds like a wiring & electrical connector wiggle & sensor thump test may be in order.
Did the problem/s come about suddenly after some event????
