The crankshaft position sensor works in tandem with the camshaft ones, and they sometimes fail together. I've seen it written that the crankshaft one should be changed WITH the cam ones. They're kinda expensive, but the no spark/injection thing suggests that may be your issue. <!-- from fixya rte -->
Replaced both bank 1 and bank 2 cam sensors along with crank sensor and still no injector pulse, no start

Component Description UBS0095U
The camshaft position sensor (PHASE) senses the retraction of
intake valve camshaft to identify a particular cylinder. The camshaft
position sensor (PHASE) senses the piston position.
When the crankshaft position sensor (POS) system becomes inoperative, the camshaft position sensor (PHASE) provides various controls of engine parts instead, utilizing timing of cylinder identification
signals.
The sensor consists of a permanent magnet and Hall IC.
When engine is running, the high and low parts of the teeth cause
the gap with the sensor to change.
The changing gap causes the magnetic field near the sensor to
change.
Due to the changing magnetic field, the voltage from the sensor changes.
On Board Diagnosis Logic
Did you check for power and grounds to the sensors? Did you hook up a professional grade scan tool an check sensor input to the ECU?

The ECM detects that the engine has started, but did not received a CMP sensor pulse during the first engine revolution.

The ECM detects that the engine is running, but does not receive a CMP sensor pulse for 800 of 1,000 engine cycles.
The 4X camshaft position (CMP) sensor circuits consist of an engine control module (ECM) supplied 5-volt reference circuit, low reference circuit, and an output signal circuit. The CMP sensor is an internally magnetic biased digital output integrated circuit sensing device. The sensor detects magnetic flux changes of the teeth and slots of a 4-tooth reluctor wheel attached to the camshaft. As each reluctor wheel tooth rotates past the CMP sensor, the resulting change in the magnetic field is used by the sensor electronics to produce a digital output pulse. The sensor returns a digital ON/OFF DC voltage pulse of varying frequency, with 4 varying width output pulses per camshaft revolution that represent an image of the camshaft reluctor wheel. The frequency of the CMP sensor output depends on the velocity of the camshaft. The ECM decodes the narrow and wide tooth pattern to identify camshaft position. This information is then used to determine the optimum ignition and injection points of the engine. The ECM also uses CMP sensor output information to determine the camshaft relative position to the crankshaft, to control camshaft phasing, and for limp-home operation.
You need a cam sensor or have wiring problem !
