Ok. Replaced the throttle body wiring harness. Also replaced the T.A.C. module.. Seen the date on my battery of 8/16. So just to make sure I replaced the battery. Still will not come out of reduced power mode.
To recap. Plugs and wires were changed. Still random miss fire. All coils were replaced. Random miss fire fixed. Still going in reduced power mode. Codes pointed towards tps and/or foot pedal sensor. Replaced throttle body, tps and foot pedal sensor. Still reduced power mode. Upon advice I checked and replaced tps wiring harness. Still in reduced power mode. Also upon advice replaced the T.A.C. MODULE and battery today. Still in reduced power mode.
Attached is a picture of the codes still being thrown. Not sure whats next.

Since you replaced all that stuff (presumably with GM OE parts) and the codes are active and not historical, still coming up, the only real alternative is that the ECM is bad.

Sign up for a subscription to your shop manual at AllDataDIY and trouble shoot those codes. Aftermarket parts don't always play kindly with the computer system.

P0220 code is your clue. How far back from the TPS did you replace the TPS harness? It appears you have a broken wire. You are gonna have to wiggle test each wire in the TPS harness and ohm out from one end to the other.
