Dodge wont start when hot Sign In

After driving my 97 ram 15000 with a 5.9 it wont start again untill it cools down. It wont even try to turn over. I have changed the starter and the coolant sensor and checked the starter relay. I have power to the starter but it wont turn over when warm. Not sure what to do im out of ideas. Any help would be great thanks.

86 the term "turn over" as it confuses this. Does the engine crank but not start or no cranking at all?

When hot it wont crank at all. I also noticed i have to drive it for this to happen if i let it warm up with out moving it, it will start but if i drive it and shut it off it wont crank.

Ok: Now I suspect a battery cable connection or cable itself. You just did the starter so that connection I hope is ok but check at battery and neg end of cable at engine block too. Not just tight but clean and tight enough. A strong clue would be clock resets, radio forgets and stuff like that.

If those behave and other items will work while not cranking after trying try using Neutral to rule in or out a problem with the neutral safety switch,
