Where is my camshaft position sensor on my 1997 Infiniti q45
What is your question?
My Infiniti q45 just went out , it'll start up but the kill after , I changed my coils cause there was a really bad misfire when in low RPM but that didn't fix the problem , Then I checked my spark plugs but also didn't change my outcome . I connected a scanner and it shorted out the scanner . The check engine light came on a few weeks ago then went away but now came on for about three days , then went off one night , then back on again , but when the car died there was no lights on the dash . The car will die when the AC is on but not when off . I'm at a complete loss here , I've also checked for a hose leak but nothing was leaking . I officially don't know what to do this is my daily comuter and can't afford to buy another car .
What makes this problem better or worse?
Worse when engine already warmed up

The vehicle connection shorted out the scanner?
There is a lot of scattered information here about your vehicle. It's really hard to tell what your main concern is. If your diagnostic scan tool does not function, then there is a data link problem initially that needs to be resolved. If the vehicle stalls when the air conditioning is turned on, it could be that there is a problem with the air conditioning compressor causing the engine to stall due to excessive load. If the vehicle has a "really bad misfire" it could be a third concern, perhaps even base engine related if you have changed plugs and coils.
Just too much going on here; I know you are cost sensitive, but getting some professional guidance in the long run will be beneficial anyway.
