Default 01 ram 1500 5.9 NO BUS No spark no fuel

Hey guys, I need some serious help. Got an 01 Dodge ram 1500 5.9 and issue stsrtee with randomly dying usually when coasting or coming to stop. If I unhooked battery for about 30 seconds, hook it back up then it would start. Well it started taking a fee times unhooking battery to.work now won't work at all. I have no spark, fuel pump wont kick on. In a month I've got fuel pump to kick when i was messaging with wires near transmission and started but shortly died. Nothing since. Please help

Swap the asd relay with another one, (horn relay is a good candidate) see if anything changes.

Welcome to DF!

Does the ASD relay click when you turn the key to On? Do the lites in the dash come on?

It says you're in Tulsa, not much snow there, kinda like bigD where I'm. If you bought the pickup used was it from somewhere waaay up north? A diet rich in salt makes these pickups crazy. A good suggestion would be to unmount the junction box under your hood first. No guarantee that this IS the problem, but it's a good/logical place to start...so to speak!
flip 'er over n take a look see. Look for corroded wires/connectors, unmount any relays and then wet 'er down with some electronic cleaner. You can get some at wallyworld for round $5.

A no buss issue could be a pcm or the wires/connections going into it. You can look up some of the other posts on the subject using the "search this forum" at the top header.
