Question TSA Precheck / Global Entry - If denied GE, will TSA precheck be pulled back?

Good Morning,

I have had precheck since July 2019. When I applied, I wanted to do Global Entry but was told it would take 6-9 months and I was looking to travel in about 3 months (domestically) so I just did PC.

I have a felony conviction (larceny) from 2005, no jail time, and completed probation. Fast forward 17 years to today - no other trouble whatsoever, except I embarrassingly got arrested for a DUI in late 2017. It was later reduced to a "DWAI" in NY state - which is a violation, not a crime such as a misdemeanor or a felony. I have a few questions I'd appreciate anyone's input on or experience:

1. I was issued Pre-Check in July of 2017. From what I've read online, I don't think this dwai will affect that upon renewal?
2. What are the chances I might get approved for GE with a felony that old? Will the DWAI factor in even though it's not a misdemeanor or felony? In NY state I can now get the record sealed (the felony), which I am working on doing - not sure if that will have any bearing?
3. If I took a chance and ended up being denied for GE, would that then affect my pre-check status? That's my biggest concern... if they're different entities and not really "linked" so to speak, I'm willing to take the chance on losing the fee - my credit card reimburses me anyway. However, if it would result in my pre-check being revoked, I would leave well enough alone.

I appreciate any input you may have, thank you again!
