if you need that warranty its FAR more likely to be some of those cheap elsctronics that they are so fond of overcharging for!
What does that mean? Reset what and how does the truck ruin it?
The computer keeps track of the install date and reduces the charge rate over time.
In my case, I believe my batteries failed...the last few days, I needed to jump start...last night I manually charged it to 100% but was again dead in the morning...it's lasted 110K miles so perhaps it's served it's purpose...
How do I do the reset?
When I was trying to figure this out for my XL, I had seen somewhere that the 94 is sort of compatible...to get it to physically fit there was a part that needed switched out; I don't recall exactly what but I think it may have been the battery tray?

I replaced my smaller battery on my STX with the larger battery which is supplied with the XLT& Lariat. I chscked for compatibility and price with my Ford dealer. Turns out the Motorcraft Battery at my dealer was cheaper than my local AutoZone for an equivalent.
Many are out there (Including myself) with the Fuel Dilution issue.I installed the UPR catch can about a week ago, and after about a 600 Mile road trip this last weekend I wanted to see what it had captured, and much to my surprise it contained a few ounces of gasoline (maybe a little water, but it has been warm here in Texas and the engine never cooled down during the trip). So I then figured I should check my oil, and sure enough it reeked of gasoline. Then I went back and checked the level, and it was way overfilled! Obviously a ton of fuel in the oil. Only 1800 miles on the truck, almost entirely highway. I only take it for drives into town (about a 20 mile drive one way) and roadtrips. We have 2 beaters we drive to work each day. I took it to the dealer yesterday and no word back yet. How much extra wear do you think that could've caused the engine in that amount of time? Should I press Ford for an extended warranty on my engine? If I was like many owners and just followed the 10,000 mile oil interval without ever checking who knows how bad it could have gotten. I also wonder what caused it. My best guess would be a leaking injector, but maybe a poorly seated piston ring? I'll report back here once I get it back from the dealer.
I went through the same. All that and another FSA inspection.., and In the end, I was thrown under a bus. There will be no word on "Fuel Dilution". They call it "Oil Consumption" test which is not the same and does not fall into the category of the issues we've been having with our Rangers with 2.3L EcoBoost engines. We need to unite here folks. Contact me ASAP to join our efforts to file a claim to defend our customer rights. We need at least a group of five.
