Car dies engine disabeled on dash. ck engine light off when restarting aftercouple of hours. When car dies wont restart until sitting for 5 minutes. when trying to start before the 5 minutes lights on dash disappear. service air bag light comes on. stays on sometimes then sometimes goes off.
Code p 0601refers to engine control module (ECM)--memory check--sum error=== causes --ECM
code p 0420 refers to cat converter system bank 1--efficiency below threshold===causes cat converter --wiring --- heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) in exhaust manifold before cat converter
At this point get a known good ECM unit and substitute it for the old one as all indications are a problem ECM unit

Check the catalitic converter in the exaust. It may be stopped up. This can cause these symptoms.
SOURCE: engine warning lights come on while driving but
ignition switches are common problems for this model
SOURCE: Car runs 6 minutes then stops. Fuel pressure good.
Check compression in the engine and also, make sure the right velocity oil is in the crankcase.

That code dsoesn't 100% mean the sensor is defective, other factors can set it. See list below.
Possible causes- Camshaft Position Sensor harness is open or shorted
- Camshaft Position Sensor circuit poor electrical connection
- Faulty Camshaft Position Sensor
- Faulty starter motor
- Starting system circuit
- Dead (Weak) battery
