Start checking voltages at the sensors - if there are that many codes. See if the outputs of the sensors are in the acceptable range, given their input condition.

If you are getting 5 or more codes, it is most likely the computer again. You can try clearing the codes and if it comes back again it mostly is the computer. Did you replace the last one with a rebuilt or a slavage yard model?
