What was the code number? Could a circuit code. Could be no sensor return code. Problems would be sensor, wiring, PCM, or broken cam/crank belt.

    Still no code number. You should get a scanner on it to see what is and isn't working. Best guess is to replace the crank sensor. Other things could be wrong though.

94 galant crankshaft position sensor

If I recall correctly, the '94 2.4L does not have a crankshaft sensor. The timing is handled by
a) correct alignment of the timing belt; and
b) the camshaft sensor on the end of the engine, above the gearbox.

I have no experience of the V6 models.

I have a 2001 galant with a 3.0 check engine light came on

I am assuming the engine will run. It could be a wiring problem or the cam and crank are not in sync.
I would need to know the actual codes to give more detail.

Position sensors

It's possible that the sensor needs to be rotated. The sensor is keyed so it can only be installed in one position. The camshafts spin once for every two revolutions of the crank, so it's possible that the sensor is 360 degrees out of phase (I've had this happen on timing belt jobs on other cars - with the sensor out of phase, the car would start, and then trail off and die within a few seconds). What you can try is to carefully remove the sensor, turn it over to see the part that mates to the cam, rotate it one full revolution, and then put it back on. Try that out and see if it helps. If it does the trick, great. If not, post back up and we can try to go from there.

2000 Mitsubishi Galant Dying at Random

It seems like a ground problem. First check all fuses to see that they have a good contact. Second, verify the battery terminals for good contact. Third verify the charging condition in the alternator battery system., remember shoul be around 14volts with car running.
