What happens when the fuse on a PCM fails?
Since the PCM is protected by a shared fuse of 20 amps this means the circuit board fails during these events. There have been two cases of this which is @pepsi71ocean and myself with the same failure. The only difference is mine failed so badly that it burned a hole through the PCM circuit board making the PCM unrepairable.
Is the ECM and VP44 the same fuse?
Make sure to test the alternator and replace it as well. This is based on the W-T ground wire mod . Being the field lead is powered from the PCM and the PCM, ECM and VP44 all share the same 20 amp fuse in slot G of the PDC. This fuse is too large to protect the PCM from a field wire short.

Open the hood of the Ford. Loosen the lock nut located on the negative battery cable connector with a socket and ratchet. Pull the connector off the negative battery terminal. Wait for 20 minutes while the PCM bleeds off the electricity it stores for backup power. Once the power drains from the PCM, it resets.
When to replace your PCM ( and when not to )?
The onboard computer is the brains of the engine control system, so when the brain isn’t functioning correctly neither is the engine or anything else that the microprocessor controls – which may include the charging system, transmission, various emission controls and communications with other onboard control modules.
