2008 Dodge Caravon 3 problems

I have 3 things going on with my 2008 Dodge Caravan. I do not know if they are related. They are (in order of occurrence)

1) Exterior thermostat is messed up. It will say it is 50 out when it is 10.

2) After remote starting the vehicle it runs for 30 seconds then shuts off. It will run with a key in it. The vehicle can be cold or warm. Still has a problem.

3) The check engine light has come on.

So, are these related? I know I need to have the computer scanned to get the codes. My local auto parts store will allow me to use a scanner, but where do I hook it up?

General thoughts?
