It's a tcu issue. When the tcu failes, it goes into limp mode. You can pull the tcu out and it'll act the same. Check it for rancid smell ie caps leaking. If it's already in limp mode, odds are the tcu is toast and you have to buy a new one. If you're near bloomington, I can recap it for you as I've recapped 3 tcus this year to see if it'll work. Otherwise, you can buy a new one and I could recap that for you as well.
