Welcome to DF

I will move your post to the 1st gen Durango section. But you need to space your words out and slow down and write what is wrong with your vehicle.

It sounds like you're not getting spark then. An easy and free thing to check first would be the battery connections, if they get dirty or corroded (corrosion can be clear too) it can mess with the computer. The next thing would be the crankshaft position sensor.

A weak battery can cause all kinds of problems such as not starting. Even if you charge it and get it started, the battery probably won't last long.

I understand what you're getting at I was not there but they did the job they tried to jump it with the truck wife said it sounds like it wanted to start but there wasn't enough juice to keep it up it is extremely cold in West Virginia right now 10 degrees12 degrees there was some corrosion on the the durango terminals I'm hoping against hope that's the problem right now I hope I don't need a computer I don't know where to get one relatively cheap and high quality

Bad battery connections or a bad battery could be causing issues. Clean the terminals first, but the battery might be toast.
