DTC P1405: - Differential Pressure Feedback Sensor Upstream Hose Off Or Plugged

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 32 other vehicles, including the 2009 Mercury Mountaineer, 2009 Mercury Milan, 2009 Mercury Mariner, 2009 Mercury Grand Marquis, and 2009 Lincoln Town Car. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
DTC P1405: - DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE FEEDBACK SENSOR UPSTREAM HOSE OFF OR PLUGGED

Description:  While driving, the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) monitor commands the EGR valve closed and checks the differential pressure across the EGR orifice. The test fails when the signal from the differential pressure feedback EGR sensor indicates EGR flow is in the negative direction.
Possible Causes: 
  • The upstream hose is disconnected
  • The upstream hose is plugged (ice)
  • Plugged or damaged EGR tube
Diagnostic Aids:  Look for signs of water or icing in the hose. Verify the hose connection and routing (no excessive dips). Check the differential pressure feedback EGR sensor for correct mounting and function. View the DPFEGR PID while applying and releasing vacuum directly to the sensor with a hand pump.
