I was out camping this weekend, and it was soggy and rainy all day. I had driven the truck to the campground in the rain. I didn't drive through any significant standing water or anything.

I get to the campground, truck sits for a while on a bit of a slight grade. I go to start it about an hour later and it does nothing when I turn the key. I have plenty of battery power, lights weren't left on or anything (daytime). Thinking it was the park/neutral saftey thing acting up maybe, I turned the key to run and took it in and out of Park a couple times. Tried again - nothing again. Then I gave up, went to do something else and came back and it fires right up 20 min later. Never did it again, and has never done that before.

Any ideas?

About 70,000 miles on the truck.

If it does it again, try turning the key to start and at the same time move from park to neutral. Make sure that the park brake is on in case it fires up while moving the lever.

A Dodge technician friend of mine says he's seen it before. It's the electrical box in behind the ignition switch. $38.00 for the part.
