Yeah, TurboCouple50, you are probably correct.  Along with 20 years of Ford statistics... something about the computer 'out-living' the vehicle.  While I do agree, I must also allow for the possibility that it could be the computer.

I do get frustrated though because all of my tests, both with the code reader and my breakout box suggest the computer, sensors and actuators (and all those gadgets) and wiring harness are fine.  So I do tend to dismiss the computer, I would just like to be sure.

Okay,

So I took the alternator in to get it tested; she failed.  My observation seems to be correct in that the alternator is no longer charging the battery.

I've got my new serpentine belt and when the alternator comes in I'll try it again.

I'll keep everybody posted.

I also inspected Salt's fuel computer visually and have concluded it is most likely the original computer for the 3.8L V6 EFI.
