Truck died and the check gauges light came on and the battery light but it was still turning over great but wont start even with a jump

Bad battery connection for the last, the previous could be related but check air and fuel filters anyhow.

I'm not a car mechanic, but, it sounds like you might want to check the fuse to the ignition switch, and, if that fails, it might be a problem with the Start Safety Switch on the transmission. Good luck.

check your the engine module(computer chip could be going bad)

I would check your ground from the battery to the frame/engine and also the positive battery lead where it connects to the starter/relay

IT's those short drives that burn down a battery! The starting of an engine requires mucho electric to get it running. The alternator then charges the battery, but slowly! If you also have the lights and stereo on it is even slower. Get the battery FULLY charged with a commercial battery charger. Then check to see if the alternator is charging up the battery after you start it. If not, replace the alternator. If the battery dies overnight or in a few days...replace the battery.

whilst you are trying to jump start it check if you jump leads are good and powerful enough to sent the power to your battery,check if your battery terminals are clean enough to accept the power given,or is your battery not completely dead and even you are boosting has not the power to increase the needing one to start and is just for lights only?

Check your battery cables make sure tight on both ends of the wire & that there no huge build up of corrosion

try and jump start it

bad battery
bad ground and wires
alternator not charging
everything point to insufficient battery voltage indicated by the need to jump the battery

I would start with my terminals first and check your ground straps that go from the motor to the firewal etc. dodges are bad about ground wires messing up and that causes all kinds of wierd things to happen with these rigs. if the battery they put in wasn't charged all the way it will take a while for the gauge to raise to normal.
