Maybe the modules that were replaced were the ones potentially subject to this issue, they analyzed the returned modules finding this problem.
Im hoping all the reduced power stop vehicle now warnings were all just symptoms of defective electrode alignment and not anything else. If that is the case, then we should all be happy Ford finally found the problem with the bad modules.

I performed a Pro Power Onboard test today and received an immediate fault. Taking it in Friday to peel the onion back further and see if it's related to the HV Battery electrode misalignment recall.

More than likely not related if you are able to charge to 80 and drive without any wrenches popping up. There is a DC to AC converter for PPO that may be the issue.

By test, do you mean tested the fault detection process or you tried powering your emergency circuits at home?

It was the internal test buried in the features section (Pro Power Onboard)
Then the message you got was ok. That message pops up when you do the ground fault test and it's successful. Message even says that. Has nothing to do with your High Voltage battery.

It's like pressing the test button on a GFI outlet.

This is so confusing & disappointing. Ford stated in March 15, 2023 the cause of the original truck fire was "cathode aluminum tabs contacted the anode electrode material, causing an internal short circuit when the cells were at a high state of charge." The same reason given now for 25S18.
