Default crank position sensor

Got a g5x3 cam on the car a while back and got a mail in tune so i could get to the tuner. The car started right up before i recieved the tune. Now it has the check engine light the dash shows REDUCED ENGINE POWER and the first time i hooked the snap on computer it read crank position sensor problem. Also no voltage in the injectors. Ive read on this forum that this can happen and that one just has to recalibrate the sensor. However at least the two snap on computer i have in my reach say the car has to be warmed up to be calibrated. My car turns over but doesnt start so this is out of the question. If i take it to the dealership do they have a computer to get this done without starting it. The tuner suggested removing the sensor cleaning it and getting it back on. However Im trying the most i can to not get in the car again and remove the header, starter and to get to that sensor. Any suggestions?

The crank relearn has nothing to do with it not starting. If you have no voltage to the injectors, first thing to check is all the fuses.

What year car are we talking about here?

its an 05. We checked the wire that goes to the sensor and its not getting any voltage. Took the computer off to get it checked. I think the black harness is not making perfect contact with the ecu. Will see what the tunner says.
