95 ram 1500 4x4 5.2 just died now no start
was driving along when without warning truck started coughing and backfiring then just died in the road it tried a few time to go but didn't had it towed home (luckily only like a mile) a friend tol me how to pull codes and i am getting 12,32,32 the 12 i can understand as i recently replaced battery terminals, the 32 is egr system failure not sure if that would cause it or not engine light been on since i bought the truck 5 months ago and since it does not have to go through emissions here due to age i didn't think much of it as truck has always ran great. I am not sure what is going on. i have fuel and can hear pump run but it just cranks. i pulled a plug wire and tried using screw driver to check for spark but not sure if manifold surface rust is just not letting it show. I can't afford a shop so trying to do it on my own i do know my way around a vehicle fairly well just not good with technical terms or computer stuff

12 Battery or computer recently disconnected
32 EGR Solenoid circuit " Short or open in the EGR solenoid circuit. Check for loose, broken, or shorted wire in the EGR valve wiring and connectors. Possible air fuel ratio imbalance not detected during diagnosis."

i did check for spark at the fits wire on passenger side with screwdriver against manifold but battery got low from cranking so charging battery and gonna try again my mechanic that does my major stuff is leaning toward crank sensor. i'm just hoping its not cause its a pain in the rear to do.

I'm suspecting crank sensor at this point charged battery check fuses and still just cranks but won't start. And living in a kinda rural area with no back up vehicle sucks.
It just doesn't make sense to me was running great then like 2 miles from the house it started coughing and backfired out the exhaust before it just stopped no warning no indication of issue at all.and only codes I was getting is battery (12) and egr(35) twice even though only one get valve another friend said when his did this it was the map sensor? Could that be why it's giving egr code?

well attempted the crank sensor tonight and got one bolt out however got the other one to turn a little but now can't get the stupid allen wrench back in it to get it to turn more to point that it's finger loose it is the bolt on the right side if your looking at front of truck, any suggestions on how in the world to do that? i find the trans dipstick tube and egr tube seem to be right in the way is there a way to do it with out taking those off? i know the egr tube bolts are rusted and most likely gonna break so rather not mess with them
