So as always, the truck did awesome in the full range of weather that I encountered over the last day or so. Major rain in Little Rock, black ice in Fayetteville, AR and then blizzard between Bentonville, AR to Kansas City, all taken without a flaw. Then I go shovel the inlaws out and get this code P2106 Throttle Actuator Control System - Forced Limit Power???? Cleared the code and drove 30 miles home without any sign of anything wrong, no code thrown. So what have I got? Didnt see this code on OBDII list.

... and about 100 more.

Common, don't ya think?

Failsafe mode. TB issues, likely - needs cleaning or R&R. Can also occur if playing in snow - PCM thinks things are out of control - hence the 'lockdown'.

Clean your TB
Clean your MAF
Change your fuel filter

Get rid of the washoobi and do the Gotts mod....and get your evo upgraded to a Gryphon with custom tunes....

 

First up, tried to get into the local Sonic, not much snow moved but the only way required me to maneuver around at F250 Screw Dually, went way deep into a snow drift (had to stop and go to 4 Hi, spun a little), code came up. Looks like I have some work for the weekend. Hopefully it had to due with the slippage in the snow bank as mentioned might be the problem. As for the Gryphon upgrade, been on my mind for awhile. I didnt notice any power failure, course I just drove it about 200 feet before stopping and clearing the code - so should I be worried?

 

Am I the only one that thinks it's bull**** to have to clear this code everytime you spin the tires in some snow?
