    I've got a 01 ford f150 with the 4.2v6 and I've probably changed the DPFE twice on it. My engine will start "pinging" and changing that sensor out stops it. Thanks for the upload!

      Yes sir. I can't take credit as I found that solution for the ping on an auto forum somewhere. No promises of course, but was lucky and worked for me and is not terrible expensive part on mine. Think it was less than 30 dollars on my truck.

    Have had P0401 code for about a year, really want to get rid of the service engine light so about a year ago i changed the DPFE sensor but not with a oem one I’ve been hearing that if you don’t use an oem one might not read it right ? I also bout 8 months ago cleaned the throttle body but only from the intake on top, could it be that I need to take it entirely off and clean it all ? Or should I just replace the egr valve itself sitting at 150K miles 2003 f-150 5.4L

But I also have a bypassed vacuum canister that might be contributing to the problem

    • @BarboursAutoHelp
      @BarboursAutoHelp  5 років тому +1

      Anytime I've seen hoses burnt going to the DPFE they were usually the wrong type of hose. The correct hose is made of a special rubber that resists burning. I suppose it could be possible that a clogged cat would cause that though. It makes sense to me anyway. Exhaust temperatures in that are would be higher.

    • @BarboursAutoHelp
      @BarboursAutoHelp  4 роки тому +1

      I'd say the exhaust leak probably is affecting your fuel trim. P0401 is most likely not caused by the exhaust leak. I'd suspect the DPFE sensor or clogged EGR ports. P1299 sets if the vehicle is over heating. A bad CHT sensor could cause that code but it's more likely that the vehicle is actually overheating. You'll need to figure out if it is actually overheating and why. Hope that at least gets you pointed in the right direction.

      It's quite possible that the egr port in the intake is clogged. If you where to apply vacuum to the egr valve while the engine is running does the engine want to die out on you? If not, and the egr valve is actually opening then your port is probably clogged.

      No, I don't think the EGR system is causing the truck to stall. I'd be more concerned with the p0102. You may have a problem with the MAF sensor. This will cause the vehicle to run very poorly. Usually a dirty sensor is the cause.

      My mother had this code in her 2000 Sport Trac. I used an obd2 reader to clear the CEL. Hoping it stays away. Truck otherwise drives just fine.

    Replaced my DPFE sensor, it cleared up for a few days and now it's back to the same thing DPFE high voltage. Wonder if EGR is clogged

    • @BarboursAutoHelp
      @BarboursAutoHelp  Місяць тому

      High voltage? Usually means that the sensor is seeing too much flow or there is an electrical issue. What does the sensor see at idle? Have you monitored the data stream on it?

      Yes, I am aware. There are a bunch of things disconnected on this vehicle as it is in a "you pull it" junk yard. Just sharing info about the code. Not my vehicle and I wasn't working on it.
