magnacharger radix problem
#1
hello, i have 02 yukon denali with radix magan charger, i was driving today with some members and suddenly, the reduce engine power light came on, i had no trouble before and just wondering if anyone had the same problem occur, or what you think might have cause the problem.
I was able to limp home, i just had no power when i push the gas pedal, i did notice that it idle rough,

I've had the problem pop up from time to time. I know you hear this as a cure all for almost eveything that pops up, but possibly check your throttle body for sticking. Could need cleaning. Cleaning usually isn't as much of an issue with the Radix, as they don't tend to get near as crudded up. If this was a fresh install I would say check the conection to the TPS, then the torque on the throttle body to make sure it isn't binding. I have the same throttle body as you, the older design and had the gears in the throttle body freeze up. GM used a white grease that had dried up. I had to remove the motor and re-grease the gears and everthing worked fine since. With the TPS having a dual path design, too much variation between the throttle peddle and the actual opening of the throttle blade will signal a problem, resulting in the pain in the **** Reduced Power
Also the reset time is usally about 30 seconds, so if it does happen again you should't have to wait five minutes. I hope you get it figgured out.

Usually a throttle issue (faulty wiring/loose connector/sensor/sticking) or the expected airflow table needs to be bumped up in the tune if it happens under boost. Are you running the tune that came with the Radix kit?
