Default starting trouble.. turn over but will not engage

I have 2003 ram 1500 with about 2700 miles on it. i parked it at work 2 days ago and fromthat point on it will turn over but will not start. the starter turns, the battery is good, tried a jump, has a full tank of gas,

a co worker tried to start it for me when i was gone and he said it started after he wiggled some of the wires while he was checking for connections.... hwoever i tried the same and i dont have such luck.. all wires appear to be connected and in good shape.....

any clues would be great and appreciated

**** around with the wiring harness...like, under steering column. hopefully it's just a wiring flaw up in there..like a loose connection or something.

if its not throwin a code or anything check the wiring like derrick said before going on to anything more complicated like fuel pressure or plugs and such.
