My only computerized vehicle is an 2009 Escape. The manual for that mentions Limp Home several times. Where I got the idea. I think there is also a 'open loop' mode if enough of the signals aren't getting to the computer. Like limp home, it is a basic tune for the TBI.

Don't overlook the ability of rodents to make after installation modifications to a wiring harness or rubber tubing.

Might check the ECM specs and see if it is expecting some signals from in cab wiring that might not have made the transfer trip.
