ive been turning wrenches (professionally) for only about 5 years now, but every shop ive worked at or dealt with has regarded the sensors as the following:

CKP sensor - CranKshaft Position sensor (1st & last letters of crank)
CMP sensor - CaMshaft Position sensor (1st & last letters of cam)

everyone here calls the crank sensor a CPS so i go along with it to avoid confusion.

my Jeep did the same thing and had the same code. I replaced the o2 sensors, cps, tps, and even new plugs wires ect. Turns out all it was a blown fuse in the fuse box under the Hood. It was a small 15amp fuse. This was on my 99 DJ limited if it helps any

Service manual calls the little sensor in the distributor a stator. That's the cam position sensor... Look it up! Hate to hate but I been wrenching my whole life..... have worked at a couple shops.... just cause they can turn a wrench doesn't mean theys gots them terms right. Ckp and cmp.... I've usually seen those on work orders

well so is that. never heard a cam sensor referred to as a stator, but then again i dont work with distributors often.
