Good advice Ed. And remember just because a sensor is not working doesn't mean its the sensor. It could be in the wiring leading up to it... among other things.

Have you done the basics? Scanned for trouble codes. Load test the battery. Make sure electrical connections and grounds are clean and tight. Check fuel pressure. Check over the fuse boxes to make sure there are no blown fuses.
