Wow, this still sounds just like my problem. I have done everything you have, including the pcm[:@] That is why I am thinking it is the pdc, I am getting enough fuel to power a damn 426 for a week[:@]
Dam acronyms.......what is pdc?

the fuel pump fuse being blown will stop the fuel pump and will cut off the pcm.....and the obdII port wont work(since the pcm is cut off)
i had a no spark problem, but it only ended up being the engine harness

if your horn works, then use that relay in the asd relay spot....that way you now you are using one that work

I used the horn relay in mine, that was one of the first things I did and still nothing[:@], it might hnda's problem though. How large of chance do you think the pdc could short out??

Yup I replaced the crank sensor, the only thing I didnt replace is the PCM. Im going to check what das told me to, this afternoon. Ill also check the fuel pump fuse. Thanks
The fuel pump fuse being out wouldn't keep you from getting spark.
Actually the fuel pump fuse is also the ASD fuse so that would mean no spark right?

Only the center terminal on the coil pack should have +12v power and that will be timed out by the ASD system and turn off if the PCM doesn’t sense that the engine is running within a couple of seconds. The outer two coil pack pins are pulse switched to ground by the PCM to create spark.

Check the fuel pump fuse the ASD relay (swap it for the horn relay) .

Also if you use a reader to read the P engine codes it will give more information than the dodge 2 digit codes.

Well here an update, We use the horn relay to see if it would work, and nothing. We checked and replaced all relays, and nothing.We checked all fuses, and nothing. We put a test light on the plug that connects to the coilpack and still getting nothing on 2 of the 4 prongs. WTF[:@] We are still confused on what is going on.[>:]

Did your horn work before you swapped relays?

Does it work now?

Pull up the battery tray and see if any wires have been corroded.
