No, cam and crank sensor will not cause a "no crank" condition. Not on their own anyway. MAYBE if one of them shorted and took down the PCI Bus it's possible, however not typical. The IPM could have a problem. It powers up MANY things. Check ALL of your fuses.
Nowadays when you flip a switch or press a button, it just sends a request signal to a module telling it to do something. Ignition switch just shows STATE of position and doesn't actually send current anywhere.
what are you referring to when you talk about the IPM?
I have an 05 pt cruiser that won't crank it doesn't even make a sound like the starter is trying to engage. I checked all the fuses and relays they all checked good. I was told that it could be the neutral safety switch but I don't know where it is at, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Earlier PTs had what you call a Power Disrtibution Center. When they went to CAN BUS in 05/06, they incorporated a TIPM, which is IPM and Front Control Module combined into one unit. An IPM can be unplugged and replaced, a PDC usually comes empty or it is included in the wiring harness. The earlier ones also had a fuse box on the inside, the newer ones do not.
I have a 05 pt that won't start all the lights come on just won't crank. A family friend who use to be a mechanic said it could be a neutral safety switch which i then called autozone and they said that the 05 pt no longer has a neutral safety switch but rather a transmition range sensor that does the same job.
2005 PT Cruiser 2.4L non-turbo 5 speed standard. I drove it to work, it ran fine. I got in it to go to lunch and it won't crank. I hear the fuel pump presure up and the lights are good, but it will not tun over. I can jump from battery + to the starter solenoid, it will crank, but will not start. Turned the key to the run position jumped from battery + to solenoid, it will crank, but will not start. I replaced the ignition switch, no change.
1) How do I pull the codes?
2) Will a defective cam or crank sensor cause an engine not to crank?
Thanks
2005Cruiser. I am having the exact same problem what ended up being the final solution to your problem?

What are you trying to fix?
