Question need help 1988 ram 50

hi my name is randy i recently bought a beautiful ram 50 4wd
it had been sitting all winter i was jumping to try and start the other day
it was rolling slow but rolling
i realized that the truck was in gear so i put it in neutral so it would roll easier
pulled shifter back into neutral truck rolled backwards a little then i had no starter at all like it went dead
i have checked everything i can think of
battery is good and charged, starter was working just seconds before
i also have no dash or head lights and no radio, buzzer goes of with door open and keys in ignition,
i thing it has somthing to do with me shifting it,
oh i also tried jumping neutral saftey switch,
please help driving me crazy
you can email me if you want at randy1@onewoods.net
thanks for your time and help
randy

Welcome!

I take it that it is an auto then? Sounds like you may have a bad switch. It won't turn over in park or neutral?
