"Engine" & "Traction Control" lights w/ reduced engine power???
OK, I've read similar, but have no real direction on where to go with this. I get P1515 (Control Module Throttle Actuator Position), P1221 (Throttle Position Sensor) and P1278 (Ignition COil #8).
Where do I begin w/ this.
I had read cleaning the ground where they meet the frame (not from the above sensors, but the actual eight grounds responsible for the entire electrical system)

I dont know but i think i am in the same boat as you...i get the p1221 and a tcs 1278 but also a bcm 2583 and an rfa 1096, 1064, and 1016. It seems to me to only happen once the engine compartment gets pretty hot from like sitting in traffic, at a stop light, or going 10 mph through a neighborhood looking at houses i will never be able to afford...I also have cleaned my grounds, regrounded my battery with new terminal and 4 ga to the frame and to the engine. hopefully we can get someone to point us in the next direction!
