Default Stalling '02 Durango

Here's a big problem I'm having with my 2002 Durango (25K miles and a 4.7L). A couple of weeks back it began having an issue where it would not crank at all. All the electrical accessories (windows, lights, radio, etc.) worked but there was no crank at all. The instrument cluster came on fine.

The ENGINE RELAY fuse would blow some of the time when this problem happened, and the odomter would blink and read NO BUS. No error codes on the computer at all.

The dealer kept it for 6 days and got nowhere. I eventually had it towed to my own mechanic and he's had it for about a week trying to find a bad component, etc. The car was cranking but the idle got weak and stalled a few times.

Eventually he replaced the PCM. He did this only because it seemed like this could be the cause and Chrysler agreed to pay for the part as its warranteed for 8 years under the Fed Emissions warranty and the dealer should have replaced it to eliminate it as a cause.

After the new (brand new OEM) PCM went in and was flashed, the car started up. Now its stalling again - after a day or so - and he's checking it but the fuel pressure seems fine.

Could it possible be a Throttle Sensor or Crankshaft Sensor?

It stalls right after its started - not while driving.

Those are some possibilities for sure I'm stumped other than that myself. [&:]

TPS (throttle postion senser)!!!!!! and your IACV (Idle air control valve)!!!!!!!! Check them. Easiest way unplug the TPS (~15$) and start it if it runs fine then thats your problem. The IACV just put a new one in its only 15bucks or so.

If neither look at your injectors.
