My 2013 2.4 no too long ago have a misfire and goes to limp mode, but the code was P0303 (I used WiTech scanner), after I change the injector #3 the problem was fixed.

You can get a used PCM on Ebay and reprogrammed to your VIN, that way you eliminate your doubt about the PCM.

Did you use OEM sensors? Most of the sensors in the Journey are hall effect and no OEM could give you headaches.

If you decide to check the timing belt, here is the infotimingbelt.rar

This all info I found for the codes you having, it may help you.

Most of the problems with wiring is at the connectors, they oxidized or the pins get loose connections due to metal fatigue, clean the connectors witlh electrical contact cleaner, it may fix the proble. Once I have a Dodge Caravan that the dashboaard  ramdonly dies and fixed it for good resoldering all the crimp wires that goes from the dashboard to the PCM.

The fix in my 2.4 was the intake gasket, read my post here:

I had the P2173, red lightning bolt and the ESC light 3 years ago, the fix was to change the intake manifold gasket, you can try in yours it may fix the problem and is inexpensive and easy repair.

Try cleaning the ABS connector with an electrical cleaner spray can, always remove the negative cable from the battery, remove the ABS connector module and spray the male and female connector with good amount of cleaner. I use the WD40 contact cleaner brand.

This one can be removed, I put the same on the Brakes section, so people can find it easy

I have the C2200 Anti-Lock Brake Module Internal Failure for a while, the code use to return after 2 weeks of clearing codes, recall was done few years ago and most of the fix is to replace the ABS module, I fixed mine just connecting all the grounds in one single post (see attached picture and recall) It have been one year since the fix and the C2200 has no returned.

The head gasket is below the valve cover (the one in the picture) has holes for the oil and water circulation and have the intake and exhaust valves

Is a 2.4 engine? if Yes, it sound like bad idler pulley or alternator decoupling pulley. Remove the serpentine belt and start the engine, if noise is gone then you know is any of the 2 choices.

Try to clean the AC condenser fins with a pressure washer, make sure there is no debris in the condenser obstructing the air flow to the radiator.

If it goes to 2000 RPM for 2 or 3 seconds is probably OK, if it last more than 30 seconds I will recommend you to change the intake manifold gasket as those engines with the plastic intake tend to leak.

The 12v in sensor 1 is the wire BR/LG and in sensor 2 is the wire BR/WT, I have never experience the problem you have with my 13' 2.4, other that the intake manifold gasket that drove me crazy to figure it out, I spend a lot of money replacing parts that were fixed with  a $6 gasket.

You will need a DMM to check if you have 12V at the heater control wire on the oxygen sensors, Are the fuses OK? Are you using OEM oxygen sensors and copper spark plugs?

Do you get a new catalytic converter under the Chrysler voluntary recall?

Make sure your AC compressor is working with no noises, if your AC compressor have only one plug is a clutch-less compressor, mine after 120K miles seize and destroy the coupling to the pulley making loud noises (like a broken engine rod) and a bad compressor could stall the engine when idling.

I always advise people, take care of any warning light in your car, thus when a real problem comes you can troubleshoot it easier. The ABS probably set a code when the sensor failed, as mine did when the left side ABS sensor was intermittent, if you do not fix it and other problem show up later you do not know is one is related to the first or else and drive you crazy.

What happens if you remove the ABS fuse?

You can try going to  a junk yard and look on any open engine for a bolt similar to  the one you need.

Replace both thermostat and drain the coolant (use the screw at the bottom of the radiator to drain it) and replace it with new coolant, you can use the one that is compatible with all coolants.
