Why is my 2001 BMW 325Ci not running?

Question

Last month(December), my 2001 BMW 325Ci would not turn on. I checked for OBDII codes and the ECU gave one, P0014. I purchased and replaced both camshaft position sensors, but afterwards the ECU gave me two codes, P0014 and P0369, and now my car will not start.

The code P0014 indicates an issue with the camshaft actuator. Here is a list of possible causes.
