Today I got around to doing some testing. I checked every fuse with any connection to the cars computer or engine, all were good. I unplugged the valvetronic motors and tested for voltage on them. I got 0.0 on the passenger side and 0.3 on the driver side. I then tested both sets of wires with one lead on the constant power (instead of ground) to check for proper ground and both showed 14.4v to 14.8v with the car on.
I’m guessing these only have voltage at certain times. Unfortunately without an assistant I can’t read my meter(short leads that don’t stay in the plug) and start the car/cycle ignition.
So it looks like I’m going to have to get an assistant or some better leads

I checked Resistance also and got 1.3 to 1.8 ohms I’m unsure what normal is. I tested two other motors I have out of the vehicle and got similar results.

I unplugged the eccentric shaft sensors on both banks and the vehicle ran worse, noticeable shaking where it was previously smooth. I plugged everything back in and cleared all codes but the same 3 that I initially posted about can not be cleared.
The limp mode has got to the point the pedal will not let the engine rev past approximately 1500rpm.
Am I missing something? Could the DME itself be causing the problem?
