Trouble Code: P0139
O2 (B1 S2) Slow Response
Trouble Code Conditions:Engine started; vehicle driven at 20-55 mph with the throttle open for 2 minutes; ECT at more than 158ºF (70C); catalytic converter temperature is more than 1112F (600C); and EVAP purge is active. O2 Sensor signal voltage switches less than 16 times from lean to rich within 20 seconds during monitoring, or will compare the state of change between the front and rear O2 Sensors and if the differences are greater than a calibrated amount, the DTC will set. 3 good trips are required to turn off the MIL.
Possible Causes:

  • Exhaust leak
  • O2 element is contaminated, deteriorated or it has failed
  • O2 signal circuit or return circuit has failed

Trouble Code: P0344
Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Intermittent
Trouble Code Conditions:Engine cranking or running; system voltage over 10.5v. The PCM detected an intermittent loss of the CMP Sensor signal during the period of 2.5 complete engine revolutions. The failure counter must reach 20 before this code matures and a code is set.
Possible Causes:
  • Wiring harness fault
  • 5v supply circuit open or shorted to ground
  • Tone wheel/pulse ring is damaged or corroded
  • CMP Sensor has failed
  • CMP Sensor signal circuit is open, shorted to ground or battery voltage or 5v supply
  • CMP Sensor ground circuit is open
  • PCM has failed
  • Trouble Code: P0340
    No Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Failure
    Trouble Code Conditions:Engine cranking or running, system voltage over 10v. The PCM detected CKP pulses without detecting any CMP Sensor pulses for 5 seconds or 2.5 engine revolutions.
    Possible Causes:
  • CMP Sensor connector is damaged, open or it is shorted
  • CMP Sensor signal circuit is open or shorted to ground or to battery voltage or 5v supply circuit
  • CMP Sensor 5v supply circuit is open or shorted to ground or to battery voltage
  • CMP Sensor ground circuit is open
  • CMP Sensor is damaged or has failed
  • CKP Sensor is damaged or has failed
  • PCM has failed

How many 'Limp Mode' scenarios are there?

The P0340 and P0344 codes are for the crankshaft position sensor on bank One, (Left side of the engine as you stand at the belt and pulley end of the engine block). Replace the sensor to see if it fixes the problem.
I cannot find a U1412 code so it could be a Dealership only error code.

I have a 2003 chyrsler 300m it went in limp mode codes p0700. P0340 p0344 p0430 p0888 came up cleared the codes and now it knocks.

clearing codes wont correct the problem and limp mode is designed to protect motor and transmission - p0700 is a transmission problem
P0700 Transmission Control System Malfunction p0340 is camshaft position sensor malfunction
https://www.obd-codes.com/p0340 p0344 is also a camshaft position sensor circuit problem
P0344 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Intermittent your p430 is a cat converter problem
https://www.obd-codes.com/p0430 and p0888 is transmission relay problem these reasons are limp mode the knock can be fuel not burning correctly or a lower engine knock can mean you damaged a piston

P0340 code and p0344 on 3.7 dodge Dakota

First check the easy thing. Have your battery tested. Sensors very sensitive to failing battery. If the battery tests fine then you will need to change the Cam sensor probably a $30 part. On your truck remove the air filter housing & the cam sensor should be easily accessible at the front of the cyl head. Hope this works for you. Based on your P codes it should.

Neon Code P0344

I believe that the splice for the cam sensor is about 8 inches back in the harness. Power to the cam supplies several sensors. I have fixed a few that the splice was bad, There is very little room to work in to get to the splice, but it's not impossible to fix.
