The engine cranks but there is no spark. So one more possibility of
bad crack sensor was also eliminated by replacing it. We had also
tried to jump start the car but it never worked. I am not sure if the
fuses and relays were checked. The car is currently at a mechanic
shop.

I would like to get rid of the car so if it gets fixed then better. I
am not sure for how much I can sell a car that does not run.

Any fault code should be stored for the time spendt cranking it over.
Cam sensor and Crank sensor could both be at fault. Before you spend
more money, retrieve the fault code. The mechanic should know how (if
he's a real mechanic)
