P2106 and P22135
Got another failsafe mode today and finally got a check engine light with it. It shows two engine codes 1) P2106 - Throttle Actuator Control System- Forced Limited Power. 2) P2135 - Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/ Switch A/B Voltage Correlation. I think the first one is something to do with it going into failsafe mode and the second one is the throttle position sensor. I think I remember reading other posts about problems with the throttle position sensor. The sensor is really easy to change and hopefully it will cure the problem . I have to take it to the dealer to fix it since the sensor is not available to any parts distributer besides the dealer who wants $76 for it. I'm glad that it's something that can be changed quickly. Should I leave the intake on it, or could they use that as something that might have voided the warranty? I don't see how it could cause the sensor to malfunction, but they might try any excuse that they can find.

Yep, everytime you flash the computer it leaves a ghost image that can be found if looked for that shows that the tune has been changed. The only way to get rid of the ghost image is through duty cycles. The guy at the Ford dealership said that it could take up to month for the ghost to get pushed out of the system but they have to look for the ghost if they suspect that it has been reflashed or messed with.
