Will not start. Only click when I turn the key

RAM 1500 2017 Big Horn, 4x4, 3.6l v6 215000 miles
It was running fine when I parked it to go in the store. Came out and put the key in and turned it and it just did 1 click and that was it. Tried to jump it off. Jist the click. Tried to put it in neutral and it would not shift. Pulled cord to force into neutral and finally able to move it. Transmission never had a problem. I can turn the engine with a big socket on the harmonic balance and it spins.

Went to pickup some furniture at the storage turned off the truck and tried to start and had nothing but a chick. Itwas just the battery terminals they had corrosion and had a bad connection to the battery posts. I ended up getting a new starter and battery anyway, but it was only the corroded terminals

Had the same issue, turns out after doing a tune out that the cam shafts is bad resulting in the misfire. Turns out this is common in rams due to the fuel conservation (eco mode) while on the interstate where 4 cylinders shut down automatically to conserve fuel. Apparently over time, it wears the cams down and develops a misfire. Very expensive fix.

Codes p0058, p1775, p0750 transmission going into limp mode. I hooked up my obd 2 and my O2 sensor is working as it should. I even replaced it just to make sure. Thinking it’s electrical but can’t figure it out

Hesitates to accelerate

RAM 1500 2003  248555 miles
Acceleration suffers at any speed. Hasn't died on me yet but feels like it wants to. Also showing obd code 0443. Fuel pump is fine. (Most)Sensors, spark plugs and timing belt are new. Any ideas?
