First of all Chrysler products do not like aftermarket parts(I found this out the hard way) now the codes P0340 is a crank position sensor code for a circuit malfunction, these are known to have wiring issues in that harness as well as bad sensors, so if you replaced the sensor with an aftermarket then take it out and put in a factory unit and check the harness and connector closely, P0113 is for intake temp sensor circuit high, now this could just be a dirty sensor, so clean with an approved cleaner and recheck for the code coming back, if it comes back then replace the sensor after checking the wiring harness and plug. P0508 is for idle air control circuit low, this can be a bad ISC unit, a dirty ISC unit or broken wiring or plug, so clean the throttle body and the ISC and it's passages and recheck, if code comes back replace the ISC. All of the above writings come from the diagnostic book. I hope this helps.
