I have a 97 Ram 1500 4x4 with 5.2 liter and automatic. Truck started and ran fine but transmission was toast so I installed one. Went to start it up and now it’s crank with no start. Did some checking /testing but I can’t seem to find correct free schematic. My biggest ??? Is does terminal C3 in PCM send a ground signal to ASD relay ???? If so then terminal C3 should test showing a solid ground signal with the key on. Mine is showing 12V + and the ASD relay clicks but it acts like it’s back current. With relay out I have my batt + and my keyed + but the wire from ASD to PCM on term C3 is definitely testing 12V +. I have no power to coils or injection in this state. I did find shorted oxygen sensor wires that I think I must have made touch during my trans swap. But with all the sensors unplugged I still have the condition described above. My PCM grounds (2) tested good /had good 12V input to PCM and found (2) 5 V ref signal outputs testing good. Is my computer fried and should C3 test showing ground ?????
