[steveklemme]

Hello all... I have a 03 ram with the hemi. I will not crank!!! Battery is good load tested perfect.. I replaced ignition thinking that may be theproblem still nothing!! I unplugged the trigger wire for the starter and sent power to it and the truck turns over fine but won't fire with the key on also the fuel and volt gauges don't seem to be working all fuses seem to be good and I switched the relays around under the hood to no avail.. any help would be very much appreciated!!!

Do you have an alarm on the truck?

You have the heavy power wire to the starter that carries the current to turn the starter over. You said you can hot wire the starter and it cranks. So that would indicate the battery and terminals are ok. Then there is power to the ign switch that is fused and in turn a wire to the IPM to the starter relay that is fused and that goes to the starter solenoid. The PCM also plays a part in the processing of the command with inputs from the transmission P/N position switch. Do you have the transmission in park or neutral? I would try both positions. Also keep in mind the ASD relay must be engized to fire the motor as it provides 12vdc to coils, injectors and fuel pump and if the PCM doesn't sense a crank signal will shut it down within 2-3 seconds.
