Replace the crank sensor, problem still occurs, Cam sensor to, same problem but not as frequent. Ignitor ground is good too.
The car will just turn off at idle, or in a turn, or whenever it feels like it. Whether there is a full tank of gas or if its low, if its cold outside or hot, if I have been driving around for an hr or just got in it.
I dont get it?

Its an auto, 2.2L.
Still does it, have a new starter, nuetral/safety switch (or called inhibitor switch), cam sensor, ignition switch, checked grounds, alternator is good, battery is good too. No ECU codes.
The car won't stall when I am driving thank god, but temperature doesnt seem to matter now.
I just pulled the car from the street to the driveway turned it off, came back out 30 mins later to leave and nothing, it wont turn on.
I get power to lights and windows etc, but I turn the key and it doesnt even attempt to crank. But I can use my remote start on my alarm to turn the car on just fine, then put my key in, and leave.
So since the remote starts does that trick, then that must narrow the problem down to....?

maybe ignition switch.....that or maybe the remote start install might have messed with the wiring going to the ignition switch.

the alarm was installed after this problem was occuring. The ignition switch was replaced after that too. So if anything the remote start is helping me out here.
But if the remote start can do it, and my key cant, that would mean.....??? is the problem.
