97 dakota 3.9 5speed won't crank with ignition no spark at plugs no fuel pressure
Got a 97 dakota that was parked in good running condition for a few years. Now it won't engage starter with the switch but will crank if starter is jumped but there's no spark at plugs or fuel pressure. I have power to coil and injectors. Any ideas what could be the issue or issues

Ignition switch?
You will only see power at the coils/injectors for about 3 seconds at initial key-on, then, the PCM needs to see the engine turning to keep 'em on.
Does the coil maintain power while cranking?
