the dpfe is a small metal box on top of and behind the engine. It should be about 3in. wide by 2in. tall by 1in. deep. It has two screws that hold it on on the left and right side. There are two hoses that connect at the bottom of the sensor and one wire harness that plugs in. To replace, simply pull off the hoses and wire harness and unscrew the screws. When replacing, make sure you put the correct hoses in place (one has a smaller hole than the other). It is best to replace with an OEM part, but cheaper plastic ones can be used, although the don't fit very well.

It is located at the back of the engine on the top between the engine block and the front winshield. It should be black or chrome colored and kind of looks like a disk, with a small vacuum hose couimg out the top of it.You can see a picture in the Haynes Repair Manual for Ford Taurus, Mercury Sable on page 6-2. Hope that helps.Just replaced mine in my Taurus today.AmandaThis is a pretty straight forward replacement - only 2 mounting bolts, a vacuum hose and one other pipe that'll come off with an adjustable wrench.NOTE: this notice is from the Autozone.com site regarding the EGR valve:**Caution!!** Before replacing the EGR Valve, inspect the DPFE/EGR Valve Pressure Feedback Sensor and hoses for proper operation.

You can replace it from top, the dpfe sensor is located under the throttle at the drivers side of the engine and it hooks on two pipes and electric connector. You have to remove the air cleaner, MAF sensor, throttle and the throttle sensor connector to get to it. It is hidden behind few hoses and connectors so you need too look real hard. I hope this will help you out and good luck!
The DPFE sensor is located in the center of the vehicle near the firewall. It is easiest to see and replace if you remove the plastic cover on top of the engine.

Ford is the only American car company that uses a DPFE sensor. GM dpfe sensor are built into the EGR.
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.
I'm not aware that part was installed on Villagers. It would be on the EGR valve if it was.
Remove the hoses. Unclip the electrical connector. Remove the bolts that hold it in place. Reverse to install the new one.
