Did you actually remove the relay in pursuit of the re-charge by loosening the two bolts that hold the relay "forks"?
If so, did you torque the two bolts to about 60 in-lb?
Any fastener that is involved in clamping the conductors must be adequately torqued. If they aren't, they can show high resistance and might show as a main fuse failure due to high resistance.
At this point, you might want to spend $22 at https://www.motorcraftservice.com/ to get 72 hours of access to their complete repair data and see if there are other possibilities for that fuse code.

S Keith, yes, I went back in and re-tightened those bolts. I will try again. I’m using feel to get to 60 in/lb. If anything, They are over tightened.
S Keith, question. When I scanned after depleting the batteries, forscan put the SoC at 4%. Voltage was nominal. Would the low SoC have signaled to not start ICE?

I am totally flummoxed by this. I just can't see where the failure would be. Is there streaming data I could record with ForScan that might be helpful?
edit:
ok, I just removed and replaced the solenoid making sure all contacts were clean and all bolts tight. no difference.
Are '06-'09 PCM units interchangeable? I have found FEHs in scrap yards.

SoC is not a function of battery voltage. It is a combination of voltage, current and temperature. The car can't establish a SoC without all three. It may make some default assumptions.
The fact that the ICE turns at all indicates the relay is functional
If you watch the battery voltage during engine start, you should see a small dip and recovery.
Just to try something, I would run through all the utilities that can reset the various modules, reset them and see if it changes.
Then it's a subscription to the motorcraft site I linked. That "main fuse" code may have other things to trace.

Thanks for your continued support.
I will reset modules and run all services. I’m using iPhone ForScan Lite ($4.99). I think I need to get a switchable USB interface and use a windows machine to run all services. I’ll do that. Then I’ll get Ford service documentation you speak of.
wil report results.

That was epic! Congratulations to you both. It was like the Pulp Fiction "Adrenaline Shot to the Heart" scene.
