Crank will not strat
Grounds are very important in these vehicles. Usually, the ground will go from the battery through a thick cable to the engine. There will also usually be a smaller wire going from the ground on the battery to one of the fenders. There will then be several ground wires going from the engine to various points on the chassis. An example would be a ground wire going from the back of the cylinder head to the firewall. Chrysler's use a system to energize critical engine components through the ASD or Automatic Shutdown Relay. In this system, power is sent to important components like fuel injectors, ignition coils and fuel pumps at all times via the ignition switch, relays and fuses. The computer then makes or breaks the grounds based off of data from various sensors. A faulty ground to the computer, battery, frame or chassis could easily result in a no start condition. Make sure all grounds are connected as required and are free of corrosion. Running extra ground wires from the battery to the engine and chassis can always help things as well.
