APPS Issue?

I have read many APPS posts, but my issue doesn't seem to match any of the posts I've found. After I mash the pedal to accelerate hard it gets very soft and hyper-sensitive. Also, the trans shifts differently, holding lower gears longer and down-shifting earlier. When I shut the truck down, the problem disappears and the pedal pressure & trans return to normal. Issue occurs either with Quad XZT+ on power setting or fuel economy setting.
Any thoughts?

Yes, reset several times. Just replaced the APPS unit and issue persists. Thinking it make be a problem with the TV cable.

OK - really easy solution!! The TV cable was hanging up due to corrosion! Lubed it up and problem is gone!! Forgot my motto: KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid)
