Not at this time, no. But if you let me know what sensor or sensors you are searching for, I can tell you their location.

I'm going to assume you probably don't know too much about cars, because those are some the easiest and well known sensors to find.

First of all, the Mass Airflow Sensor is located on the intake tube between the air filter and throttle body. It's basically looking right up at you when you open the hood.

The throttle position sensor is an integral part of the throttle body assembly, so if it needs replaced you have install a complete new throttle body assembly.

The intake air temperature sensor is built into the Mass Airflow Sensor, and it not serviceable separately.

You have no PCV valve on this engine.

The coolant temperature sensor is located in the cylinder head.

what happens when you turn the key to run? What do you get?

when you say you don't get any communication, are you talking about a scanner not seeing any computer?

well initially i would turn the key and no crank, but the ac and the stereo would power up. However none of my windows would work and my dic wouldn't come on. I think it had to do with my theft deterrent system. Now, since the battery ran down, i just have acheck engine light, and nothing of any promise. No codes , no stored codes. It used to happen any time it got wet, and i would have to let it sit till it fixed itself. We had a bad rainstorm and im not able to do anything at this point.

if the ac and the stereo would come on but no crank I would look at the ignition switch. See if the power is going to all the parts that the switch is supposed to power up. You may have a bad connection in the switch. Don't buy anything check the power and grounds.

the fact that the windows and other parts don't work but the radio and ac work kind of leads to ignition switch before ecm...
