Does the sensor need to be replaced? I just had my brake fluid flushed and the car has gone into limp mode twice in 5 days since then. Both times I turned the car off and on and it ran fine.

Yup, I would replace it. You could try cleaning up the sensor as well.

I replaced the Brake Booster Pump inside of the drivers side wheel well and the car has not had the code since. It was putting the car in limp mode.
