I have the same unit 2006 4x4 f150 lariat 5.4 when down 1 liter of oil it will sometimes shut off when restarted it will go into fail safe mode,restat again and it will move.very supprising when it shuts off
Your pickup should have thrown a stored code if it has shut down. Get the code extrracted, and see if it indicates a sensor along with something else. I would advise you to install an after market gauge which operates independantly fron the existing oil pressure circuit to verify that it is a low oil pressure condition the next time it happens.Could be a faulty sensor, but it needs to be verified first.

Oil level is zero indication of oil pressure, unless the oil level is drastically low. Remove the oil pressure sender and screw in an oil pressure gauge. Verify oil pressure. If you have pressure within specs, replace the sender. Either you need to check this out yourself, or take this to a mechanic to have it investigated, or you risk serious engine damage that will result in engine replacement.
