Does anybody know what causes an 09 streetglide to into limp mode? I had two codes show up and I cleared them to get home.

See if you can open this up. Its a technical bulletin.

Basically fretting on the throttle body actuator connector.

=======================

Like suggested,pull connector off throttle body ,clean with contact cleaner,apply some dialectric grease to the connector to keep moisture and corrosion out and that should hopefully fix it.

Same exact thing happened to my 09 FLHTCU approx 2 months ago and i did what i rec above & its been fine thus far having gone 2,500-3k miles since then.

This ^^^ but i would also put the grease on the ECM pins. I had this happen two years ago on my 2009 UC and that is what the dealer did. So far trouble free since then. They did both pins (ECM and throttle body).
