Good afternoon. So I have a 2012 Ram 1500 with the 5.7l Hemi engine. About 6 months ago a family member who was borrowing the truck ran it out of oil and you can guess what happened from there. So I just completed the rebuild and have the engine put back in the truck and everything except 4 electrical plugs (which I have no idea where they go) have been hooked up. I started the engine and it is running GREAT nice and smooth and quiet good idle etc. The issue is, the check engine light is on and it is giving me 5 different codes. Now I am sure that these codes are related to the disconnected electrical plugs but again, I cannot see anywhere in the engine compartment where these may connect. The codes are: P2008 Intake Manifold Runner Control Circuit/Open (Bank 1); P2017 Intake Manifold Runner Position Switch/Switch Circuit High (Bank 1); P0016Crankshaft Position - Camshaft Position Correlation (Bank 1 Sensor A); P0113 Intake Air Temperature Sensor 1 Circuit High (Bank 1); P000B ""B"" Camshaft Position Slow Response (Bank 1). It is vitally important as the vehicle is registered in North Carolina and needs to pass a safety and emissions test to get it re-registered. I am at a loss of how to proceed. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!!

The 4 electrical plugs will fix your codes. Find someone who can plug them back in to their correct locations.

Appreciate the sarcasm... I'm pretty sure that if I'm smart enough to rebuild an engine that I'm smart enough to realize that those plugs need plugged back in. I was hoping for some effective advice on like maybe where they plug into. Seems to me that if someone has experienced this before they could give good advice rather than me having to go to a mechanic and spend a bunch of money to plug in 4 plugs...

Take a picture of the plugs you are talking about and post it cant really just guess what ones they are without seeing them.

At the front of the vehicle I have 3 plugs 2 yellow and one gray. The driver side front has the gray and one yellow and there is one yellow on the passenger side. These are along the very front where the radiator is. The last plug is at the very rear of the engine compartment on the passenger side by the intake manifold and fuel rail...

the 2 yellow ones should go to airbag sensors in the front i think. the gray one in the back I thought the intake had a map sensor or a sensor on the back of the intake not sure about the last gray one in the front.

I appreciate the response. I was thinking about pulling the intake manifold back off to see if I just missed that socket on the back of it when I was putting things back together. I figure that's what I am going to need to do to be sure.
