In past few weeks I had another problem in regards to my clock which was resetting to 00:00 everyday when I start the engine, looked at the battery , one of the connection is oxidized. Not sure it is related or not. Please help me
Well.... yes and no. A cam shaft is just a counting sensor that tells the computer the position of the pistons so it can control fule and spark for the best performance, if the battery is corroded and the car is vibrating it is very well possible that this sensor may not be getting enough power or gaps in it. But thats a stretch so assume they are different issues. Replace the battery and go from there or just clean it off its its still some good. good luck
https://www.6ya.com/mr.mike your welcome and i did forget to mention that the cored can surely make the clock reset depends how often its loosing connection and for how long

oNCE THE BATTERY LIGHT COMES ON, IT MEANS THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH UR CHARGING SYSTEM. mOST LIKELY THERE MIGHT BE A PROBLEM WITH UR ALTERNATOR. u SHOULD LIAISE WITH AN AUTO-ELECTRICIAN

You didn't by chance hit or move crankshaft position sensor when doing other work. (Behind crankshaft pulley)

crank shaft sen. is easy enough to change.its mounted near timing chain cover,cam sen.is somewhat harder,its in the distributor,id doubt that both are defect

Remove the cam cover, remove the spark plugs, turn the engine to number 1 TDC, put a pencil in spark plug hole number one and twist the crank back and forth and make doubly sure you are at TDC. Now loosen the four bolts at the front of each cam sprocket, check TDC again with the pencil and rocking the crank, now take the pencil and lay it across the flats at the back of each cam. Twist the cams very carefully so that the pencil sits flat on each cam square. Snug up the sprocket bolts and use the pencil to check TDC again! Now check the cams again. Repeat the procedure until you have the cams flat and the engine at TDC.

Theres (if mounted correct!) two MARKS on the sprockets~these fit with the bright links on the chain~just in case anybody else needs it...
