I think I found the problem any feedback is appreciated do my numbers sound right !?
I'm not trying to insult you, but you might want to take it to a trained professional. Here you said the TCM was reading 0. I asked you if you checked it the way the manual tells you and you said yes. In your other thread a poster posted the procedure and then you said you didn't get zero. JUST DON'T WANT TO SEE YO KEEP THROWING MONEY AT THIS PROBLEM. I told you before I didn't think the tcm was the problem. If I had to guess, I would fault the ecm possibly at this point, but a lot of things can cause limp mode.

Is the car idling fine?

I would check the resistance of the app before you buy a new one unless your source as a generous return policy.

just bring the car to a professional and pay them $100 to tell you what's wrong with it. sometimes we can't do it ourselves.
