I also just replaced the camshaft posture on sensors in it cause a friend had told me that could be the problem but it still is doing jt

How is the serpentine belt? I would check the belt and all the accessories and idler wheels that run on the belt ( power steering, alternator, AC etc).

When the car is running the dash light,taillights,radio,horn,ac,power trunk not working
