Best Answer

From my limited understanding a DPFE is part of the EGR system and its actual name is Differential Pressure Feedback (I am not sure what the E is for) My knowledge of this stems from getting an ODB code P0401 and trying all fixes to the EGR Valve, Flow Sensor and still not being able to remove the code. I found reference to this part from another site don't remember which one though sorry. Hope this helps a little. DPFE stands for the differential pressure feedback EGR system sensor. It's part of the EGR system. In Fords and Mazdas, it seems to be one of the first parts to defect when a P0401 signal is detected.

Does anybody knows the meaning of trouble code P1400?

The code P1400 reads "DPFE Sensor Voltage Low" (Ford, Mazda). Often it's caused by a bad DPFE sensor or clogged EGR passages. DPFE stands for (Differential Pressure Feedback EGRI) I would clean the EGR valve which cost nothing. If that does not cure the problem, you may need to replace the DPFE sensor, which does cost, and it may not fix the problem. If you want to be sure you replace the correct part, then visit your local Ford dealer. dpfe stands for delta pressure not differential.
