According to my Haynes repair manual, the Differential Pressure Feedback EGR sensor (DPFE) monitors upstream (before) and downstream (after) exhaust backpressure. By calculating the difference between the two pressures, the powertrain control module (PCM) determines exactly the EGR flow rate at all driving conditions.

How can you replace the dpfe sensor and reset the p0402 code on a 1996 ford explorer XL?

I had this problem with a 99 Ranger. The DPFE is a rectangular unit about the size of a deck of cards, usually silver or black in color. It is located on top of the intake (mine was right in the center. It has a small vacuum hose on top and one on the bottom and a wire plug on the front. It is held on by 2 screws and takes only minutes to change. You clear the code by disconnecting the battery for a few minutes. Hope this helps.
