Jeep stalled while idling down the road now it wont start and gauges wont work.when i try to start the jeep it sounds like it wants to start but its not getting spark i have paower to everything lights all work radion windows and lights behing gauges but thr battery, oil, temp, and gas dont read. Could it be crankshaft position sensor ,distibutor, ignition module would any of those cause it to stall and not start and make gauges not work

IF you have no spark, the first thing I would suspect is the crank sensor. However, since the gauges stopped working, that concerns me. Check to make sure all main fuses are good under the hood. Also, check to make sure there is a good body ground from the battery.
