I have a brand new battery, alternator, and cam shaft sensor on a 2002 trailblazer. The vehicle requires a jump daily and if the vehicle is running, and I turn the a/c on, the motor will stall and then shut down.

Check for unwanted current draw. Disconnect the negative battery cable and connect a high impedance test light between the cable and the negative battery terminal. If the light comes on with everything off then something is continuing to draw power. Remove the fuses one at a time until the light goes out. Look at the fuse cover or the owners manual to determine what the last fuse that was removed is used for. Something on that circuit is shorted and needs repaired or replaced.

Why is my car powering down while driving

Keeping it short and simple. Check your battery voltage, looking for about 12.4 vdc with the vehicle not running, about 14.3 vdc with the engine running. It sounds like you may have a bad alternator. Depending on what your voltage readings are will determine what's going on. Do you have to jump the battery to start it again? If you jump it and can start it. Then take the jumper cables off and can't start it then your battery is bad because it won't hold a charge. If you can start it without a jump and it just dies that would most probably be an alternator. Keep it simple to start, first battery then alternator. Beyond that you may have a way bigger electrical issue.

Crank shaft sensor? is this the same as cam shaft

no each one has its own job,
crank sensor is counting crank shaft rpms
cam sensor is counting cam shaft rpms
is there any lights coming on just as this is happening?
i think you should have the fuel pressure checked when it dies out,you need at least 50psi at fuel rail

Cam shaft sensor & air conditioner

I replaced the Cam Shaft Sensor. I also cleaned the Throttle Body with carb cleaner. I had my wife hold down the accelerator, while running I sprayed down the throttle plate and the entire area around it. Now my TB finally idles smoothly, and it hasn't died yet!! Check engine light is gone and I passed the emissions test!! Yea!!!
