limp mode. who can tell me what codes?

anyone know what specific codes cause the limp mode? my car is in limp mode but all the emissions have been removed even the wastegate solenoids so I don't know what to re install to get it out of limp mode. I know the wastegate solenoids cause it and the knock sensor too, but what other codes cause it?

Yes your limp code is caused by a bad oil pump, as well... when you replace it also repair or replace you computer as well .... there will be damage there as well...................

on stock ecu, you have to bridge the connectors with a resistor to make the ecu think the solenoids are there. do you have the resistors in, and are they all working properly?

in the FSM it actually lists the codes, and which ones are limp homes, so that's the simplest place to start....

I do have some dummies solenoids but not on all, split air, vent etc.. mainly just on the wastegate and boost control. I have the FSM but I already got rid of the codes that supposedly cause limp mode, by the way omp is good no codes on that. no main component codes just solenoids. also the buzzer never stops off it's constantly on and it's not the coolant warning, that light goes off, or the oil light either. don't know if it's related to the limp mode issue

just found the problem with the continous buzzer, turned out to be the airbag module.
