96 Ram 1500 crank no start
I have a 96 Ram 1500 5.9L 4x4 that all of a sudden would not start. I drove the truck up on ramps to change the TCC solenoid, and when I went to start the truck after the job was done it would not start. I realized I was not getting spark. So far I have changed the coil and crank sensor, but I am not getting power to the coil. My fuel pressure is good. I don’t know what to test for since I have no power to coil.

You will only get power to the coil for about three seconds, unless the PCM sees the engine cranking.
Think I would take a look at the distributor, and see if the cam sensor didn't come unplugged.

Swap the ASD relay with the horn relay. Grab a friend, stick 'em in the drivers seat, put your finger on the ASD relay, have your friend turn the key on. You should be able to feel the ASD relay click, and again, about three seconds later.
