apps?

i was traveling in heavey traffic on I-15 at about 20 mph in one of the lower gears when all of a sudden my engine went to an idle and the check engone light came on,at first i thought the engine had died. as soon as i pulled over i jammed my foot to the floor and it took off as normal as can be.....no codes other than 1693 & 0500 t hese codes have been present for a couple of years so they are nothing new.....so my question is , is the apps going bad or what?
also is there an after market one available?

No aftermarket available.

Try the reset procedure first, might be as simple as that.

Do you have a fuel pressure guage?
All the other mods in your sig, I'm assuming you do.

Try the APPS reset procedure, but I don't think it'll help much other than prolong the agony.

At least hook up a temporary FP guage to see if your lift pump is still alive.

All those go fast goodies are most likely taking a toll on the injection pump.

Mine has been doing something quite similar. Cruise control on running about 73-77 mph and I go down a slight decline. I can't say hills, because we do not have hill around here. Mine will do the same thing dead pedal and check engine light with P0121 code. I have not tried the reset procedure to see if it helps, but if I can remember to, I will try tomorrow. If I accellerate down the decline, it will not throw a code.
