I've never heard of a brake light switch wired to the ECM when using a manual trans that would prevent it from starting. Only time I've seen it was to make the reverse lock out work like stock.

Try wiring the switched 12 volt to 12 volt constant just temporarily to see if it will fire. If it does disconnecting the wire will shut the computer down and shut off the engine.

From what I've read a bad cam sensor will not shut the engine down but a bad crank sensor will.
I ran a constant hot wire still nothing. Fans come on right away I heard that means theres a code. Shipping the ECU out to PSI today. This will be the best thing to do as they can program it to my specs.
