Your codes are likely stored in the IDM, (Injector Driver Module), and most $99 code readers that you get at the autoparts store won't read codes from it.

I would try a good aftermarket scanner or a Ford diagnostic tool to get the codes from the IDM.

Just my .02

disconnect both batteries, go back in the house for a cold adult beverage of your choice, take a good magazine (diesel power) to the crapper for a while, come out and play with the kids, then reconnect the batteries. Now watch and see if the CEL comes back on. If it does youve got an issue, if not well problem solved.
