Your vehicle seem to have gone into limp home mode. You need to have the fault codes pulled to know what is wrong. Limp mode lets you get home but limits engine output function.

SOURCE: 2006 Chevy Impala reduced engine power

best bet is to stop in at a Pep Boys, Autozone, or similar big autoparts seller, and ask for free trouble code scan, which should pinpoint area causing problem. If not obvious by codes, what is necessary to repair the problem code, get back to us with those codes and we will be glad to assist you further. Better this way, takes away the guess work, and saves you money, as well as getting it right the first time.

SOURCE: why does reduce engine power light comes on chevy

That is a hard problem to pin point without knowing what codes the computer has stored. It can be any number or sensors or engine problems.

You can go to most auto parts stores and they will pull the codes for you for free.

Reduce Engine light on; battery light on; low charge from charging system; vehicle won't run faster than 30 mph

You may have damaged the ECM with a power surge from shorting out the alternator. Try to reset the CPU program using a code reader and look for fault codes while you are at it

I have a 2010 chevy cobalt. Engine power reduced light came on I took it to Autozone and had it scanned. Two codes popped up, p1682 and p0325. What could be wrong here?

As far as the cobalt, check tac/throttle actuator control. Below is circuit description for p1682.
The other codes was for knock sensor.

The reduced engine power light comes on at 50 mph what can the problem be?

A lot of times this is a dirty throttle body, possibly sticking at this mph. Clean with battery disconnected with throttle body cleaner. Must be nice and shiny. If the throttle body isn't functioning correctly or it's filthy, reduced engine power light will go on to act as a safe mode.

Reduced engine power come with check engine ligth

Check and clean the connections on your battery first. If that doesn't work, some have said it turned out to be a problem w/ the throttle connector on their rides. It happened to me ( I had the reduced power light on my 2001 tahoe and was restricted to 15-20 mph max) and I started w/ the battery. Worked like a champ for me!

You are not the only one. Ive met a good many of Saturn owners (most were 2001 L300 drivers) but they were plagued with the problem you have and practically identical codes. The following remedies have been known to work:

1. Replacement Battery Cable
2.Replacement ECU Wiring Harness
3. Replacement of ECU

2003 GMC throttle position sensor

I had the same problem with my 2003 denali and came to find out that it was the battery causing the problem. the battery with sufficient power will dictate the tps. if the battery is low or bad, it won't have enough juice to allow the tps to. work. get your battery checked.
