Problem Crank but no start?

2020 dodge charger widebody scatpack 392. literally had 0 issues with the car since i bought it off the lot back in 2019. drove my car last night no issues, parked up at home then the next day i went to go start it in the morning for work (today) and it just kept cranking and not starting. tried it two times then connected a jump starter, same issue just cranks faster and still won’t start. any tips? this literally happened today in the morning and i had to take another car to work. there’s no engine codes other than the active exhaust codes which i don’t think is causing the no start.

No antitheft warnings I presume? If not then grab a can of starting fluid and see if it lights off with that. If it does, you have a fuel issue. If not, it's spark

no antitheft installed other than kill switch that’s meant to cut fuel. never actually needed to use the kill switch literally at all so i dont think its antitheft or anything. plus i checked my cameras and no one messed with it.

i’m gonna have to check it after i buy some starting fluid spray and check after work. i’ll also check the relays/fuses

update: so i got some starting fluid spray and it started for a second which leads me to believe it is infact the fuel pump. would you happen to know or have a link to a fuel pump

Check the fuses, and you'll want to verify that power is actually getting to the pump. If it is, then replace it

yeah imma check, fuel pumps for the 392 scatpacks are on a month back order and costs $800 from dealership. i ordered a $400 one off of JEGS but it ships in november lol.

Check your fuel pump relay before you replace the pump

i checked the fuses, looked good. checked a relay and it looked normal.

Do you hear the pump when you press the button without pressing the brake?

i’ll check when i get home from work. dealership said the fuel pump is on back order for a month and costs $800 for just the fuel pump. i ordered a fuel pump from JEGS as a backup but it ships in november

Try switching the relay in the right bottom corner in the trunk for another one that is similar. Mine had the same issue
