Here are the most common causes of idle surge, stalls at stops, slow idle speed, erratic idle speed, rough idle and engine hesitation (and other problems), it is in most cases the idle speed control air-bypass valve and or throttle valve and upper intake, these area's get full of gunk and combustion residue over the miles and cause idle issues (stalls, low idle) like yours, Get a can of intake cleaner from any local parts store, not carb spray, intake cleaner, it is made by a company called CRC, remove the air intake hose to the engine, hold the idle high so the engine won't stall, then spray the can of cleaner into the intake while keeping the engine running, use at least 1/2 the can, shut down the engine and disconnect the battery for 5 minutes, then restart and complete a number of mixed driving cycles, town, freeway, stop and go etc., after a few days the problem will go away as the system will relearn to the clean intake

I don't have that code in my book, but , it looks like an Evaporative Emissions code. The Manufacturers have codes specific to their vehicles and can tell you the code name. Also, Dodge has a whole lot of info available under the Body build section of their webpage , hard to find but very good and free. I would look for a bad evap System vacuum leak, or bad Evap hose broken, bad fuel cap, etc
