Hey all,
I am struggling with my truck.
I started getting ECS errors, changed throttle body, and waiting for a new pedal sensor. But I added new tires and now I have traction control light coming on under acceleration with no slipping, anyone had an issue like this and might be able to suggest a starting point.

Also, would a bad app sensor going bad cause it to bog down. I put in the BBK 90mm throttle body and it doesn’t want to go. If I mash it the traction control light comes on, and it even acts like it has a miss.
Appreciate any thoughts

What’s your engine and your transmission?

After I replaced the throttle body, I cleaned and secured the connection to the pedal.
I have not gotten the code again, but still have all the symptoms.

the traction control light is new, as well. but the OBDII isn’t showing any currently.

When I added an oversized ported throttle body I had issues for 2 days of the car going into limp mode. I would shut it off, turn the key on and press the pedal full 3 times and it would run again for awhile. After 2 days it never did it again.
