Have you a code reader to obtain the Diagnostic Trouble Code(s) that are triggering the limp mode ?

Also, on the 2.2 you have a coolant temperature sensor, so worth checking that and it’s wiring are ok.

See https://www.defender2.net/forum/post390785.html second post down has a diagram on location.
