Default Frustrating gremlin

I bought a 2002 Ranger Edge 3.0 A/T 2WD a while back and 3 days ago I shut the truck off, left it for 2 days and it would do nothing when I tried to start it except show all of the normal info on the dash when in the run position such as fuel, door ajar, check gauge, etc. I proceeded to try to jump and nothing. Got the battery tested, still 12.7v and 500CCA, more than adequate. Pulled the starter and got it tested and is fine. Replaced the ignition switch and the start relay, still the same outcome. I've also checked many of the grounds as well. I then put a scan tool on with the engine in the run position and it read "no link". Is that an indication that the PCM has expired? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Oh, and I also jumpered the starter while the key was in the run position and the motor turns over but won't fire.

So its not firing it'll turn over but not fire? Try spraying starting fluid in it and see if that turns over and if that's the problem it needs fuel so it might be a fuel problem
