Default Died and won´t start

My 04 Durango died while driving and now it won´t start. I got a copule a codes first "P0571- Brake switch 1 performance", then I disconnected the battery and tried to start it again.
It did not work, but I got a couple of new codes
"U0141-LOST COMMUNICATION WITH FRONT CONTROL MODULE" and "P0522-ENGINE OIL PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW"

What could it be? I have been told it could be the fuel pump.

The car in question is a -04 Durango Limited Hemi

Turn the key to 'on' not start and listen for the fuel pump to prime. It will be a slight humming sound for a few seconds.

I have tried that, I hade a buddy turn the key and I was under the car. I don´t think that the fuel pump made a sound. Is there some other way too check the fuel pump?

Start by checking the fuse. If you suspect the pump I would check for power at the pump and ground. I know it's hard cause you have to drop the tank. You can however check it inline there is a connector on the frame behind the drivers wheel. I belive power is blue with orange tracer. If you have power there you know the ignition switch fuses relays and wiring ect. Is good to that connector. I have seen problems in that connector related to no fuel pressure. If you have power there reconnect connector and backprob the otherside to make sure power is actually get there if so you probably need a pump or the wiring back is bad. Oh and the fuel pump is a 20 amp in the same box as the relay and I belive there is a 10amp in the other fuse box for that circuit also check those first.
