APP 1 and APP 2,Throttle position correllation. Whenever you get a reduced power,It will always be related to the throttle actuator, or APP (accelerated pedal position).There is a disagreement between both position sensor, or the TPS itself.

I have a 2003 Chevy 1500hd Silverado and the reduce engine power comes up on dash and I lose all power after I turn off and on a couple of times and it works again whats is the problem and how I fix it....

try disconnecting the battery for 5 minutes to reset the complete system. a few different things cause the reduced power to activate, oil pressure, coolant temp, traction control. I use my snap-on MT2500 to locate these types of problems

Common problem with wiring to tac unit wires break inside sheathing a couple inches away from your throttle body. Or your throttle body is dirty.
