Do you have any mods that might affect something? Check your manual under Troubleshooting.

Take the truck to the dealer and let them fix it, it is under warranty.

Well i guess it was the usual Computor had a fault ,,false fault??? I don't know,,they re-set the PCM and now the service engine light is out , for now....Can't a person just un-hook the battery and then re-hook battery to re-set the computors ??????? instead of taking it to a dealer???

Scrooge, Not a good idea to reset it yourself. Yes pulling the bat. cable will reset lights but then dealer says we can't get the trouble code off the computer until it's active again. Had this happen on my 04 Screw, took it in after resetting myself and they wouldn't do anything. Next day lit up again, took it right in and ended up with a new throttle body assembly cause they were able to read the codes to analyze problem. Mines a 5.4 though so don't know if its same issue but point is, you're under warranty, let them fix it.
