Was able to jumpstart it & drive it a few days with no issues. Now it won’t turnover even when I charge the battery. Was able to Check the battery & alternator at Autozone when it was running ok. No issues. Battery acts like it’s dead now. Can’t even roll down the windows or unlock the truck. New PCM is less than a year old. Checking the fuses next. Not sure which one. Any suggestions?
How long has your 2002 Dodge Dakota had this problem?

Hello, yes, check fuses. Perhaps when it was jumpstarted a fuse was blown. Too hard to tell. You have to inspect them. The ones in the box under the hood. AutoZone is truly of no real help. Do not bother doing anything there because it's only incremental pieces of a larger test that you are doing. You really need to be testing the whole vehicle properly guided by a workshop manual, not bench testing components, which in themselves may seem fine, but the connections may not be.
Having a parts store as some kind of diagnostic resource is a farce. Seek local guidance at a shop near you.
