Have you gone to have the codes removed? Might still be throwing the truck into limp mode if the old codes are still present.

The APPS can also give you dead pedal...............you need to ck codes instead of spinning your wheels guessing.1693 does not ever show up by itself,check both pcm and ecm for codes.

I had dead pedal because I forgot to reconnect the APPS, might be just as simple as that. Hopefully anyways.
