Default Another no start issue.

I left my house to grab something to eat, car starts up normal, drive to bbq place, its not open, so decide to go elsewhere. I never stopped the engine, just left the parking lot, stopped at a stop sign, go up a block to the redlight, stop there to wait and the car suddenly shudders a couple times and dies. Tried to restart, nada, starter will turn over, just wont even sputter.
So after pushing it into a parking lot (fun) and getting it towed home, I gotta get this thing fixed. I am guessing the Cps went out, I have two older grand Cherokees that both had the same problem. I ordered a new one from Chrysler, as the nearest M-Benz dealer is in Dallas.
I tried to pull codes, but couldn't connect my scanguage to it, I haven't connected it before, its usually in my Bronco. I don't know if its unable to connect with the ecm because of it being old, or a M-benz or what.
Btw the PO did have the notorious relay control module replaced.
Any other ideas what could cause this sudden problem, I am replacing the cps regardless, just kinda hoping its the problem tho.
Thanks!
