Please check the DTC codes again. None of them exist. The 'B' codes on an OBDII scan are 'Body' for example air-bags, power locks, any faults unrelated to drive train. But none of them come up on a search. Now, 'P' codes are Power train. P127E is not a valid code, DTC P codes are numeric only not alpha-numeric. We will be happy to help you, but these codes are not coming up in any search in several sites.
Did you use a plug-in scanner or the system the Chrysler claims to work (but does not, have been there done that) to pull DTC codes as in this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3_px6K9lSY

Check the pins on your ECM you'll need a diagram for your vehicle I'm going through something similar with a 2005 PT Cruiser lost the OBD 2 port no power or ground won't communicate... I was able to read codes off the cluster now after someone tried to fix the issue to no avail. Now the cluster won't show the code either but I grabbed them before it won't give them up! 2005 PT cruiser pulling my hair out... OBD2 port no communication... took it to a repair shop with a P0335 Crankshaft sensor after the port can't be read read it on the cluster but now won't read in cluster do no way to read codes ...had crankshaft sensor replace they were trying to fix the OBD2 port now the codes for U0155, U0160, U110C , P0031 low voltage on both P0037 02 sensors .. . the mechanic said on the PCM the 2 connectors to the left had pins out! Could the connectors be causing this? Thank you for broadcast... S.O.S. Do you have information on what each connector contol plugged into the PCM for 2005 PT Cruiser? It all started with (2) 02 sensors bad so I have info it maybe the ground side of the 02 sensor in the PCM or ECM plus the mechanic said to pins were out on the PCM not sure how that happens but willing to bank that could be something as well ... I'm abut to get up anyone offer me some hope can you repair pins in this thing?
GuruX9T2H Try wiggling the wires on the PCM ypu might have what we are all experiencing! A lose pin or ground. If it's not it could be your Auto shut down relay under the hood a square black relay the are interchangeable with all the relays or fuel pump relay... check fuses too.
i had same problem with mine its the ground in rf fender took it off replaced connector all is fine now
