E150 LFC/DTC Code issue

Hello all. I just picked up a used '04 E150 that has the airbag light turned on in the dash. The flashing light indicates a LFC 12. However, when I connect my scan tool it gives me a DTC B1342. Has anyone seen this combination before? In looking at other posts I haven't found these two together. They indicate two separate issues.

I've disconnected the battery per instructions in another post but that didn't clear either of the codes. Any and all guidance would be greatly appreciated.

The service manual shows DTC B1342 and LFC 12 to be the same. Fault Description [RCM Faulted], action to take [Replace RCM]. Restraint
Control Module.

Thanks Speicher. I thought LFC 12 dealt with a Low Battery Voltage or something. Where can one download a copy of the service manual for a '04 E150?

Try All Data, I've seen their wiring diagrams and they appear to be the exact repleca of OEM manuals. They charge for the use, however they say you can print as well. Others posts say you can register with Auto Zone and view their manuals.
