Yes !!! Twice since I had my 2008 Chevy Impala LS

I have a 2003 GMC Yukon occasionally my check engine light will come on and then it says reduce engine power I put my code reader on it and it says replace pedaling accelerator sensor I did that it still does the same thing does anybody know how to fix this or what else it could be I tried to ground see if it was a background I clean the throttle body but still goes off every once in awhile but when I put my code reader on it and I erase it and it goes off and it drives just fine but it will have a check engine light and reduced power again saying the same thing on my meter what else could it be

If you pull the battery cables off you'll lose any of your codes if any your vehicle may run a little rough that's just the computer having to learn again but shouldn't take long for it to pick it up and run efficient

Too costly for installing a new Accelerator Pedal Sensor and then having the on board Computer Recalibrated !! I sold the car to the Scrap Yard instead and bought a Vehicle that was manufactured without the Electronic Control Throttle Pedal Sensor. Your vehicle could cause you to become involved in a serious vehicle wreck.

Well I guess you're stuck buying 20+ year old vehicles then. Not a sensible solution.

trouble codes NEVER direct you to replace anything. Codes should be diagnosed properly.
Try obd-codes.com for a good starting point.
