Here is a list of all codes you should keep on hand that will help you on your car

12 Recently disconnected the battery (always stored)
55 End test.
CODE 31... depending on the model, code 31 can refer to two different systems. Please choose from one of the above links for specific information
on each system.
Wastegate Solenoid Circuit Error
The ECM regulates turbocharger boost by
opening and closing the "wastegate"
as necessary. (The wastegate is a vacuum operated bypass valve that
limits the ability of the turbo to provide boost.) The Wastegate
Solenoid regulates the vacuum supply to the wastegate for proper
operation.

Gear Position Switch (PRNDL)
Error
The Gear Position switch
tells the ECM
which position the shifter is in. The ECM will use this
information to inhibit starter operation, change the transmission shift
pattern as necessary, and provide the information for the electronic
shift indicator display on the dash.

Common Problems
A maladjusted or failed Gear Position switch would be the most common
cause for a code 31
Hope helps with this (remember rated this post).
SOURCE: i have a 1997 dodge stratus es with the 2.5 v6 and
Code 12 = Number of Key-Ons since last Fault (code) or since Fault(s) were erased.
Code 32 = a) EGR Solenoid Circuit or b)EGR System Failure. For a): An Open or Shorted Condtion has been detected in the EGR Solenoid Circuit. This is usually for some California Vehicles.
For b): Required Air/Fuel Ratio was not detected during Diagnostic Test. Again for some California Vehicles.
In either case: Replace the EGR
Code 17 = Engine Runs Cold for too long. Engine Coolant Temperature remains Below Normal Operating Temp's during Vehicle travel. This is a Thermostat problem. Replace it.
Let me know if this helped, or if you have additional questions or information. Feel free to contact me at FixYa.com!

P0505: Idle Air Control System
There is a small motor that controls the amount of air the engine gets when you aren't using the throttle. The computer uses this small motor to control your idle. It sounds like it needs to be replaced. You can try cleaning it first with some throttle body & air intake cleaner.
