Default Truck dies while driving then won't start right away

Alright guys I have a 99 dodge ram 1500 5.2 5 speed. I'll be driving down the road and the truck will just turn off and won't start back up for about 5 mins. The truck turns over but it's not firing. I've swapped out the ASD relay and it's still doing it. When the truck turns off the gas gauge, battery and temp gauge aren't reading anything. Any help would be awesome thanks!!!

After it quits the first time, how long will it last before it quits again?

Now this is most likely the crank sensor.
