Power loss with VDC and slip indicator lights on

I had a throttle body go bad and do the exact same thing. I replaced them both. Issue solved. With the car off, unplug the drives side throttle body and plug it back in. If the issue is gone, that's your problem. You can do the unplug and plug back in trick to fix it temporarily.

Thanks for the information!

How did you know the entire throttle body needed to be replaced and not just the position sensor? Did it cause your VDC and slip indicator lights to come on?

My car is Stillen supercharged. The problem might be with the extension used to relocate the driver's side throttle body to the passenger side. It causes the limp mode I'm experiencing, but I'm still confused by the traction control lights coming on.
