FSS is set to 3,500 miles instead of 7,000 miles
I'm resetting my FSS for the first time since owning my car. I have a printout of the procedure to reset it however when I did so it is set to 3500. I thought it was to default to 7000 miles? Is this somehow changeable? Can anyone explain to me why it did not reset to 7000 miles?

It should always change to 7000 miles and I have never seen this or heard this said by anyone here over the past 12 years

A GUESS, it might have been altered in the vehicle computer for a specific duty or geographical area, within the original Chrysler STAR (and assorted) computer diagnostics equipment. Just think, if it triggers earlier it might also be a maintenance tool for service departments to generate more monies. Anyway, it is JUST A GUESS from one who would not put it past anyone capable of adjusting things like this, afterwards.
