The reason it's on....99-00 trucks are 2 wire alternators. They have the main charge wire and the L-terminal to "turn on" the alternator and tell it to start charging. In 01 they also started using the F-terminal, which is a field sense wire that provides some sort of feedback from the alternator to the PCM. Since you upgraded to a newer OS, your PCM is now looking for the F-terminal signal. As DLH said above, you can just disable that code and you'll be fine.
