It sounds like it didn't "forget" anything. It "remembered" that a severe fault was present and followed its programming to disable the FET driver circuitry. Once that happens a scan tool MUST be used to restore "normal" operation after the original fault is corrected as I previously noted.

I still do some work on my Ford trucks, F150 & my F350, but I have to admit I worked for Ford/Lincoln/Mercury when electronic ignition was the new technology, how many here can rebuild a carburetor? .At the prices these days I have to do as much as I can, switched careers and technology left me behind in this field. should have stayed with mechanics my retirement would be better ...............
