Default No bus

I have a 2001 Dodge ram 1500 V8 5.9 4x4 220,000 and I'm currently having a no bus. I have gone through everything unplugged every sensor with no change. I have checked wires I'm getting power from the PCM into the PCM. I have changed the fuel pump I've changed the crankshaft position sensor the PCM is from 2020 I have a remanufactured transmission with 5,000 mi on it. When testing the fuel pump I inadvertently crossed 85 to 87 at the relay and everything clicked on and the no bus went away I did test the pump and it is operating I'm out of options I don't understand what's going on hopefully somebody can help lead me in the right direction.

Does it start/run/drive properly?

Usually, that's just a bad sensor. O2 sensors are famous for causing that......

Yes normally it does start run and drive properly I took it out on a Saturday a couple weeks ago It was running just fine I went to load a stove in the idle got really bad and then it just stopped running I did change the idle air control valve and inspected it I did not check the O2 sensors I will do that.
