Default No start/ '94 jeep grand cherokee limited. 5.2 v8

I was having trouble with it starting, long delay after ignition turned on before fuel pump primed. I tested crankshaft position sensor, camshaft position sensor, map sensor, throttle position sensor, intake air temp sensor according to how I understood the Haynes manual, they all tested ok. I changed the coolant temp sensor, fuel pump relay, fuel pressure regulator. It totally quit, no fuel pressure although when I hotwire the fuel pump relay the pump runs and brings the pressure up to bout 50 lbs. also not getting spark. I had disconnected the security system awhile back thinkin maybe it was causing a problem, didn't change a thing. I also (now that it totally quit) changed the capacitors in the ECM. Idk what to do next

Ok well you have narrowed this down to an electrical problem. You aren't getting spark, and you aren't getting any fuel pressure unless you hotwire the fuel pump relay. Id suggest checking all of your wiring. I don't know how the alarm system is wired in, so i cant tell you if it is a problem

My money is on the cam sensor, even though you checked it.
