no crank, stuck waiting for tow
Truck will not even crank. Tried both keys, moving shifter through gears (Auto). Any ideas so I am prepared when the dealer calls with the diagnosis?

We had a 6 speed truck do this and it had everything else but no crank with the starter, we tapped the side of the starter with hammer and have not had a problem since.

there is a yellow wire the hooks to the starter that sometimes the insulation gets worn off and it wont start cause it grounds out. should be able to see it through the driver side wheel well looking at the starter. may not be it but just something to look at and check.

Thanks to all
Thanks for the replies! Chrysler dispatched tow truck and Dealer fixed in 6 hours. Wire for the throttle was grounding out. Paid RETAIL for the 1st oil change. DIY from here on. $91.25 Vs $19.00!
