While driving in the snow, at approximately 35mph, my instrument panel lit up like a Christmas tree with multiple errors along with the check engine light. I immediately took my foot off of the gas to find a safe spot to pull over however the truck took off as if I hit resume on the cruise control. I used the brake and the truck slowed - however, once I released the brake, the truck immediately began to speed up again without my using the gas pedal.
I was able to stop and turn off the truck. The acceleration problem was no longer present but the check engine and traction lights stayed on and now, I had barely any acceleration no matter how far the gas pedal was pressed down. I again turned off the truck and started it back up. Traction warning light gone, check engine light remained but now I had normal acceleration.
The codes I received were Throttle Position Sensor P2138 and P2127.
Of course it took 8 days for an appointment and after driving an hour and waiting for 2 and 1/2 hours, I was told because the codes existed in the memory but were no longer "active", and there was nothing the dealership could do.
