Yeah I fixed One of these yesterday, it’s common that brake fluid spills onto the sensor which is directly below the reservoir and the sensor is rendered garbage and causes limp mode.

Changing the sensor involves changing the vacuum pipe because it comes with the pipe. The TIS directions indicate removing the reservoir and the master cylinder but I was Able to change it without doing this. It is a bit harder but you won’t have to bleed the brakes again. With the engine off press the brake a couple times to get out the vacuum in the system. Remove the clamp connecting the pipe to the engine vacuum pipe, it’s a one time clamp. You’ll need a pick to unclog the sensor and another pick to pull the connector back. Remove the end going into the brake booster with a long flat head then undo the end of it near the fender. Push in the blue release and pull it out. To get the engine line out will take some patience, you’ll need to slip it under the booster then out the drivers side.
