Installed Intake - CEL

After installation of my short ram intake I got a CEL. I went to autozone to check it and it was P0110 - Camshaft Position Sensor. Where did you guys place the sensors from the stock intake?

Whole Intake

Boost Sensor

Camshaft Position Sensor?

Thanks for any help.

The camshaft position sensor is nowhere near your intake. It is mounted onto the timing chain cover.

Wait a minute, the P0110 is not the camshaft position sensor, it's the air temp. sensor, it's normal to have this b/c you took off the snorkel, try to plug the sensor somewhere.

Have any ideas where I could plug it into?

Your air temp sensor. Being as it is will not throw a code unless you damaged it. Mine is sitting right on top of my trans mount tied to some wires running over there. Make sure it completely plugged in. I havent gotten a code for mine and lots of other ppl dont have the air sensor plugged into anything most ppl are just laying there

Is there a way to reset the CEL myself, without a comp?

Have you read the sticky about ECU codes/resetting? It's on the top of the 4th gen page... hard not to miss.

Open circut?

I am getting this code (P0110), and after much research I am still stumped...
I have tested the sensor, and it is operating within range of the specs. However, when I test the cable that plugs in to the sensor I get some strange results.. Or at least not what I had expected. When the car is off there is a resistance similar to that of the sensor.. When the engine is running my multimeter says the circut is open.
Does anyone know why this may be?
Any help would me greatly appreciated.
