P0032 is the heater for an O2 sensor that's located ahead of the catalytic converter. The ECU thinks the heater resistance is out of range.
 
O2 sensors need to be at a high temperature before they start to work properly. The heater is there to warm up the 02 sensor faster than might otherwise happen, especially in cold climates.
 
The 02 sensor itself is probably OK, otherwise you would have seen a different or additional OBD-II code. You should plan on getting it replaced, but are probably OK for the drive to Fl.

#37 of 45 '02 Town and Country stalls, surges, and speedo prob by chuckerdon

Mar 27, 2010 (8:20 pm)

My '02 T&C has been acting up by surging when brought to stop, then sometimes stalling. Intermentantly, when starting out from stop it will 'skip' (like a missing cylinder or two) but when running at any rpm any other time runs smooth.
  The Speedometer will go from 65 to 20 and back to 65 while on highway (no change in actual speed or engine rpm). Does this at slower speeds too.
  Trouble codes are; P0601, O2, and evap. I don't believe the first is related to other two. Also have a text description of 'internal fail check sum error' message.
  Local tech seems to think it is PCM (transmission?) computer. I am under impression that there are two computers ... one for engine and one for transmission?
    What say you?? (Help!)

It means the ambient air temperature sensor is probably bad. It has nothing to do with whether or not the van overheats.
 
Have the sensor replaced.

#41 of 45 Check Engine Code P0455 by youngclan

Feb 16, 2011 (4:36 pm)

First we had amessage about our gas cap. Checked it, took it off, put it back on...tightly. Message went away. Few days later, the check engine light came on. Took it down, got a air leak code. Figured it was the gas cap. Replaced the gas cap. Light is back on. Is there any easy way to figure this out without a trip to a mechanic?

My 2001 T&C has the ABS light on. I had it scanned and the mechanic said the code ( 02 ) was unknown to him. It had something to do with a fuel control/regulator or something. ??? any idea what this is about?
