CEL light + fan on solid= Limp mode.....

First off the car is a 1991 Z28. Can an unplugged sensor cause a car to be in limp mode with both fans and CEL light on solid right from start up? I thought it was a bad computer so put a new one I had in and still same issue. Started right after a T56 swap. Cant use ALDL to scan as it wont connect. I do not have my Dakota Digital set up yet either. Could the lack of VSS signal cause this?

Thanks

I would have thought that's a bad computer, too.
