It's not fuel pump, but is a fuel delivery problem P2017 is Intake manifold position sensor circuit high P2111 is Electronic Throttle Control Unable To Close P2112 Electronic Throttle Control Unable To Open. None will cause battery light to come on. But your car does have issues, for sure. The throttle plate is stuck. See http://engine-codes.com/p2112_dodge.html

No its not related to charging at all. Most probably the alternator is the problem.

Check your throttle body. Google symptoms of a bad throttle body. Bet that's it.had mine replaced same issues. Runs great now.
