Restart the Vehicle: First, shut off the engine, wait for about 10 seconds, and then restart the vehicle. Sometimes, this simple reboot can reset any signal errors that might be causing the "reduced engine power" warning light. It's still a good idea to have a mechanic check it out.
Since you've already changed the battery, it's essential to ensure that the new battery is functioning correctly. Check the battery connections, terminals, and cables. Also, inspect the electrical system for any loose or damaged wires.
Fuel System: Verify that there are no fuel-related issues. Ensure that the fuel pump is working correctly, and there are no clogs or leaks in the fuel lines.
Ignition System: The ignition system plays a crucial role in starting the engine. Check the spark plugs, ignition coils, and ignition control module. Faulty components in this system can prevent the engine from starting.
Air Trapped in Cooling System: As suggested in one of the solutions, make sure there's no air trapped in the cooling system. Bleeding the air out can help maintain proper engine temperature and prevent starting issues.
Remember that driving with the "reduced engine power" warning light on is not recommended.
