Default DTC questions

I had a 3-day subscription to the Ford service system and saw these repeated DTCs on my truck, a 2021 F150 XLT w/ 3.5L Ecoboost.

The DTCs seem to have started in mid-February when I replaced the battery. I upgraded from H6 to H7 and changed the SOC target from 80 to 90. (There is no longer a setting to specify battery size in FORScan.)

Some (all) of the DTCs seem related to voltage. Is it reasonable to clear them (I have an ODBLink MX for use with FORScan) without further evaluation? If they're still an issue, will they not recur, at which time I can have somebody assess them?

The camera code may be related to my having swapped a tailgate. I have 360 cameras. All works as expected.

Thanks for any guidance provided.

All those codes are stored codes and not active faults except for this one:

HVAC | B1083 : 07 : 0A Recirculation Damper Motor

I have seen that HVAC fault before; not sure what causes it. It could be resolved with an update to the HVAC module, but if your a/c is working fine, I would not worry about it.

Thanks. I'll clear them all. If the HVAC B1083 recurs, I'll explore further.

Based on what you have done with the system, Battery changes and BCM voltage increase.
.
Three sets of codes apparently are with engine running.
Three sets with engine off.
The voltages listed suggest this.
A. Battery off voltage of 12.9 is to high for an AGM Battery. Not good for its life span no matter what size it is.
B. Maybe you generated issues from the changes you made.
C. Code U 3003:16 is for voltage out of limits seem to be a hint.
.
Two B codes involve the Air intake Hardware.
One B code is a Light circuit short.
B codes are generated from the Body Control Module that feed many different circuits.
.
Without knowing any more, just trying to di-sec this a bit for you based on code set and voltage listed.
Good luck.
