Default cam install issue ?

Could you please help me out with this issue were having ?

We recently installed Comp cams Stage 3 on the new engine 5.0L mustang (2012 GT )

and just for a base tune to start her up the idle doesnt seem right, and a P0019 code popped up. Sent a reading to one of my tuner friends and he said that the exhaust cam bank 2 has the issue.

Now I am pretty sure I followed the instructions that were provided by Comp cams.

I also tried finding the sam eissue online but no luck, I will attach a reading of the log as well that could help.

Thanks

The code is for a cam position sensor. The fact that it's idling wrong points to maybe the sensor or wiring being damaged or not plugged in.

I am pretty sure the wiring is perfect, but not sure if a sensor went faulty during the camshaft installation.

Is there any camshaft installation instructions other than comps ?

you might have to go get a cpu tool and do a relearn sensor thing. I have a 2013 5.0 and every time we do work on the clutch (flywheel and pulsring are there) you have to relearn the crank sensor using some cpu diag tool. Not saying its your issue but before you spend the dauntless hours tracking wiring/sensor problems try this.

But you did insure you timed all your cams properly and put in a phaser limiter?
