fords use this. maybe others but only Ford calls it a dpfe. [differential pressure feedback e.g.r] they were notorious failures in the 90's . what the do is bypass a little exhaust through an oriface tube on either side of the catalytic converter. the dpfe measures the pressure difference to determine if the cat is plugged [ or not doing its job] if it measures values out of range it will set a trouble code.
YES - www.motorcraft.com lists a DPFE sensor for all available engines on a 1996 Ford Ranger
Ford is the only American car company that uses a DPFE sensor. GM dpfe sensor are built into the EGR.
I dont believe the Impala 2003 uses a DPFE sensor as part of there Emissions system.
P1401 is DPFE sensor circuit high, check out this tutorial to replace the sensor on your Ford
Where is the DPFE sensor located in a 1999 Ford Exployer? I had my oil changed yesterday and was told that the hose connected to this sensor is off.
yes
The DPFE sensor is a totally separate sensor. Look for the feed pipe to the EGR valve and follow it towards the exhaust. Somewhere along that line you will see two small pipes leading to hoses, that lead to the sensor.
some 1997 mountaineers didn't come with the dpfe sensor, you will have to look at the egr positioning sensor which is right on top of the egr valve itself . hope that helps
P1401 is DPFE Sensor Circuit High Faulty Differential Pressure Feedback Electronic (DPFE) sensor. Loose of disconnected wiring to the sensor
where is the DPFE sensor located on a 2002 ford crown victoria?
N/a
Dpfe sensor is the delta (differential) pressure feedback egr (exhaust gas recirculation) it monitors the pressure on the egr valve to make sure it is working.
