I would try to access info again. It just worked for me.
What he means is this:

Here is the ab data from the IPMA on my truck according to Ford. It ends on line 37-06.

Here is the last few lines from the IPMA from a comparable vehicle in FORScan:

Ford does not show lines 38-01 or 38-02 even though they clearly exist. For some reason, this happens with vehicles with the last few lines of ab data on several modules.

I would do both honestly. Disconnect for a few minutes will reboot every module, then trickle charge it while it’s connected so the BMS sees a recharge and let it go several hours / overnight

May not fix the problem but doesn’t cost anything to try, and it’s amazing the number of random issues it does fix
Would I disconnect only the negative terminal, as the positive one has a whole bunch of stuff and looks really locked down.

Correct. Leave it off about 5 minutes. Hook it back up then connect your charger/maintainer. Make sure when you hook that up you use a chassis ground or that little tab off to the side of the terminal so the computer can see the charge going in

So to follow up. Did the disconnect neg battery terminal and trickle charge overnight, and reset the dtc’s and only the one remaining is the TRM which the Trailer Module which I blame on the xkglow third wheel taillight.

Btw, I had to reset browser cache to get the as built site to load. So I c/p it into an excel sheet for future reference.

Thanks for everybody’s help.
