My 6.7 diesel will periodically go into complete limp mode, idle only.

Limp mode without a code?
That's a new one on me.
Going to have to catch it with the dealer scan tool when it is doing it so you can see what it is doing.

Heck, get the batteries load tested.
Some really screwy stuff happens with a battery with internal issues, even though it may still start the truck okay.

Absolutely! I had AGM's installed at FORD in summer of '24 and they went dead on me twice in one week last winter when it was 13°F.

Our OBS trucks computer(limp mode, no codes) is usually toast when all that happens, wonder if you could unplug something, with it running, and see if code/check engine comes on then? what year, miles?
