Disconnect the negative battery cable, turn the key to the start position and hold it for 30 seconds. Reconnect the battery. Start it, let it idle for 10 seconds without touching the accelerator. Kill it, then drive as usual.

I tried that I got the codes to clear but it still won't start it's not giving me any more codes

I checked the connections to the sensors and they are clean and pluged in.

I will try dissconnecting the battery again and start from scratch. Might have a cheap Durango for sale lol

Have you checked the pressure at the fuel rail?

Ignition on,it should be 5v in to cam sensor and crank sensor from pcm , the wire out from cam sensor to pcm should be fom 0v to 5v. when cranking, test with analog meter.
Do you have 12v at the orange/green wire on coil when cranking ? If you have, then the crank sensor is good I think.

On my car I measure 5v fom pcm to cam sensor, and 4,2v on the wire who goes back to pcm.
My promlem is the pcm is generating both of the voltages, and my car will not start.
I got 12v to coil but I could not get the right signal to ground on coil.
I have also changed crank sensor.
