My pickup truck has a reduced power light on, and I can't get my oil life too reset for me.

The reduced power light means the truck is in limp mode. I have seen a dirty throttle body cause this issue, but we should run the codes to see which ones are stored, this guide can help:

Here is a guide to help you service the throttle body and I have included instructions for your car in the images below:
