Default 05 hemi wont start..

hello everyone I have a 2005 single cab ram hemi 4x4 that doesn't want to start. it cranks and cranks but doesn't start. check engine light code was PO113 which is for the IAT and I have checked all the fuses and they are all in working order, cleaned out the throttle body / stock intake and nothing. I cannot hear the fuel pump buzz or whine or any sign of it which leads me think it is bad, my question is, can a fuel pump go bad overnight? in a matter of 12 hours or so? turned it on at 10:30pm got home at 11, woke up next morning and around 9am is when it no longer started. thanks for your time, any help is greatly appreciated. I have tried searching for the problem but have not found a case similar enough having to do with the fuel pump going bad overnight when the truck ran perfect before.

The pump in my Dodge Wagon went bad driving down the street. Do you "run it down to fumes" much?

It never has less then half a tank in it, that's why I am curious if it really could go bad that quick, before it would start first try with just a tap on the key literally. it turned on perfect every other time in the 3 months i've had it.

rent a pressure gauge and hook it up to your Schrader valve and see what you get for a reading if any.

Check your ground/motor and ground/chassis. It can be corroded
