Default Reduced Engine Power

Ok, this was a little weird.

The car had been sitting in the garage for 2-3 days when I started it up, backed it out of the garage and turned it off because I forgot something in the house. Well, when I turned it back on to leave, I got a message the said "reduced engine power" and all my needles were either pointing all the way to the left or the right. I then turned it off and right back on with no problems.

Any ideas what could have happened?

Check the error codes that were generated.
If P1514 or P0068 comes up - it's the TPS Sensor Table.

Im sorry, but how do I check for the error codes? And is the TPS Sensor table something serious?
