    Truck went into limp mode with "ETC" warning light - stored P2122

    Now this is just getting weird. Today I climbed in the truck and, as usual, it started right up. But this time there were NO warning lights - no CEL, no lightning bolt - and it ran completely normally ALL DAY. I had not cleared the DTC codes and I had only driven about 8 miles since this...

    I don't know if it applies either but I already did it anyway and the problem happened again since.

    Will take a look. Thank you.

    Truck went into limp mode with "ETC" warning light - stored P2122

    Thank you for the info. My next question was going to be if anyone knew where I could find the wiring diagram! Thank you. Actually, in reading back through my own posts as well as the recent one above, this all started happening after the battery was replaced. The battery was replaced...

    Truck went into limp mode with "ETC" warning light - stored P2122

    Good question - NO, this did not happen before the new battery. Before the new battery was installed the truck was jump-started. After the new battery was installed there was a CEL and a bunch of stored DTCs. I asked the dealership about it and they said that DTCs after a jump start and...

    Truck went into limp mode with "ETC" warning light - stored P2122

    Thank you for that input. It very well could be a bad wire or connector somewhere but the dealership supposed checked and couldn't find anything wrong. It has run fine for 3 months (~1000 miles) since the last time it happened so trying to find the issue test driving is gonna be tough. Every...

    Truck went into limp mode with "ETC" warning light - stored P2122

    Thank you for the info but I have a somewhat "less severe" problem. The truck always starts and runs fine but then for no apparent reason all of a sudden goes into limp mode while driving with "lightning bolt", CEL and a P2122 DTC code stored. If I shut the truck off and re-start it it runs...

    Truck went into limp mode with "ETC" warning light - stored P2122

    It is now March 9 and the truck has been running fine since my last post to this thread (3 months). But on my way home today, while waiting for a left turn, the "lightning bolt" came on and the truck once again went into limp mode. I checked the DTCs and, sure enough, it showed the same code...

    The future looks pretty sad.

    #1) Stop watching Fox news #2) Did you forget about the Ford Pinto, the Volkswagen Beetle and the Karmann Ghia? ALL of these gasoline-powered vehicles were notorious for catching on fire. And what about the "double bottom" gasoline tankers that were outlawed in several states (like Michigan)...

    Truck went into limp mode with "ETC" warning light - stored P2122

    Cause was never determined. I don't know if it applies to gas or just diesels but I did the PPS recalibration procedure on the new PPS and, so far, the DTC hasn't returned. I believe the dealership may have flashed the PCM as well because it feels a bit different then it did before (shift...

    Truck went into limp mode with "ETC" warning light - stored P2122

    Thank you for the input. All good suggestions. The dealer just called and conceded that they cannot find the problem. He said the next step in their procedure is to start replacing parts, beginning with the pigtail connector to the APPS - for $700. He said that it MIGHT be the cause but...

    Truck went into limp mode with "ETC" warning light - stored P2122

    OK folks - really hoping for some advice here. The dealer has had the truck for 10 days now and still can't find the problem. I don't know if they are actively working on it or not at this point. I need my transportation back! What do you guys advise? I replaced the Accelerator Pedal...

    Truck went into limp mode with "ETC" warning light - stored P2122

    Well - it seems it is NOT fixed. Truck went into limp mode again last week with chime and CEL immediately on start up. I shut it off then re-started and it ran fine. I got to where I was going with no issues but then on my return trip it went into limp mode again less than 1/4 mile down the...

    May I point out that the OE part failed - and at only 18,000 miles. I could buy another one of those from the dealer for $250 and hope it lasts or I could buy this Hella replacement part for $60 and hope it lasts. The decision was easy.
