Fit code error nobody can help!

I have a 2009 honda fit. I bought the car as a salvage. After having the car for 3 days and 300 plus miles the check engine light comes on. I take it to the dealership they cant find the problem. The code doesnt exist according to them. It came up as 001, the car runs fine. The car did come with an aftermarket backup sensor installed and somehow wired to the reverse on the transmission. He said this might be causing it or it might need a new computer, The dealer said they would not work on the car because it was a salvage title. I took it to a mom and pops garage they pulled the same code 001. They scratched their heads and told me to take it to a electrical shop to have them look at the way the back up sensor was wired. Any ideas, Has anyone had a similar problem with an undocumented code? I am new here, thanks in advance.

P0010 is the code for the camshaft actuator which is a solenoid that activates the VTEC function... Are you having a loss of power?

pwer seems fine. Once in a while my car lurches out of drive.
ok so I called the mom and pop store who said. the code came back as unreadable. The dealership said it was 001? shit is kinda crazy. Pulling my hair out. Damb salvage.
