Here are some possible solutions to try if the car doesn't start after replacing the camshaft sensor on a 2001 Dodge Neon:

3. Check the sensor alignment: The camshaft sensor must be properly aligned in order to function correctly. Refer to the vehicle's service manual for the correct alignment procedure.

4. Test the sensor: Use a multimeter to test the camshaft sensor for proper resistance. Follow the specifications provided in the vehicle's service manual. If the sensor is faulty, replace it with a new one.
