1 Crankshaft Position Sensor problem

Failure Date: 11/17/2008

I own a 1999 Dodge Intrepid ES and while driving, the car just quits and I have to coast to a safe area off the road. The engine just kills. Once stopped, I try starting the engine. It just turns over and won't start. After waiting about 3 to 5 minute, it will start up as if no problem. Mechanic can not diagnose the issue through computer, because it won't store the fault code. It happens on a monthly basis, approximately. I have replaced cam sensor, crank sensor, timing belts, and no fix. It's almost as if there is a bad ground to a electrical sensor or exposed wire. Plugs and wires were replaced, but no solution. I'm just looking for someone who has eventually solved this issue. The car isn't that bad, replaced a lot of electrical sensor components, but would just like to solve this problem permanently. Any advice or solutions are more than welcome please. It's somewhat nerve racking to drive, not knowing when the next problem will occur. Please help.
