I don't know what testing you have done? Make sure battery has a full charge. Have helper crank it while you check for spark at the plugs. If spark everywhere, use a gage and proper fuel pressure. Also, check fuel injector pulse. Any applicable trouble codes? If your missing everything I mentioned, have to check crank and cam sensor signals. Don't replace anything unless your testing points in that direction.

2011 Dodge Ram 1500 will crank, but will not completely start, (what I mean by this is, that it does start but does not fully engage), after it sits for more than 30 minutes unless we jump it off. We have replaced the battery, battery terminals, the alternator has been checked, it's not throwing any codes. We thought it might be the security system/ key fob, so we did the process of locking the door, then unlocking, and then starting. We did this after we changed the terminals because at that point we could not get it started even while jumping. This trick worked once. Checked and changed out fuses, replace the fuel relay switch. Have noticed that the fuel pump will continue to run after the key has been removed but not all the time, so took the fuse out at night, still will not start, acts as though it doesn't have enough battery to start. We are at a loss for what to try next. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

My Self having exactly the same issue with my Durango '15, I just Change the Fuel Pump Relay and nothing, what I do for make it full engine start, is Disconect Negative Pole from battery, open the hood, wait about 20-30 min, then re-conect battery with hood opened and then lock/unlock drivers door with key fob, then start again with the StartOn Button and bingo, works fine until next time, Im thinking could be 2 things Securty/alarm issue Or Software Issue/corrupted, I'll get mine to dealership this week and see what happens
