Default Wrench light/limp mode then okay ?????

Driving this morning and did my usual “loud pedal to floor” that I always do from this same stop just for *****s and giggles! Wrench light lit and went into limp mode. Pulled over, turned it off, re-started and all okay.
No CEL and when I checked, NO DTC’s stores. Has been fine since. Any ideas?
Truck is ‘13 XLT, SCrew, 3.5EB, 82k on the ticker. Canned tune WITH Pedal Commander.
Pedal Commander has been installed for +/- 5000 miles. Tune installed 2000 miles ago. Has been flawless until this incident. I drove 125 miles today after incident with NO further issues. FLUKE??????

Check your plugs. When did you last change them?

Possible throttle body.

Thanks for the replies guys. I suspected throttle body because if the Pedal commander. I thought I would get some kind of code though. Plugs and boots were changed at 75k miles with Motorcraft 534’s @ .030.
If the TB was suspect, wouldn’t it throw a code? Also, all three sensors were serviced ( cleaned) at the same time I did the plugs and boots.
