i know this happened to cc2cuz , maybe he'll chime in with what the fix was. i believe its something to do with a non vgt .
This code has troubled me in the past. It first happened back in November. At that time I just cleared the code and kept driving. Didn't really go into limp mode until a couple months ago. Everytime I tried clearing it, it would come right back and stay stuck in limp mode. So I popped the hood and found this
Put a new one in and cleared the code and it never came back. To be honest though I don't know if it was just coincidence or if it really solved the problem. As a preventative measure I had gear head write me another tune to turn that code off. So far so good.
Good luck.

Either of these look familiar? Looks like an ebp sensor?The sensor was located on my passenger side exhaust manifold but it may be different in your truck cuz I have mpd's manifolds.
Here's what it supposed to look like

That is an EBP sensor. Should be connected to the tube coming off passenger side up pipe, Back of the intake on the passenger side.
JCain, in the first picture you posted, see the stainless steel tube that's back by your down pipe, has the almost 90 degree bend in it? That's the sensor he is speaking of.
The other wiring connector you have a picture of is the connector for your VGT, which I assume is not being used if you have a non VGT setup.
Only egr sensor on the truck would be an EGT sensor.

No worries, just trying to help too.
I assume by code on the sensor you're talking about the part number? All numbers stamped on the sensors are what's called an "engineering" part number. Any Ford dealer can run that number and can give you the correct part number which will always be different. So whatever number came back as a pressure sensor would be correct. EBP is an exhaust back pressure sensor.
Sometimes the tubes themselves get clogged with soot as well. I usually try to run a piece of say 18 gauge mechanics wire through the tube to clean the soot out. Sounds like you have already replaced the sensor, give it a shot and see how it goes.

Has the code reoccurred with anyone?
I have MPDs non vgt turbo and it did this back when I was running mpd tunes, but it would only do it when I would start the truck. Then stay until I would unplug the mini max right after clearing the code or just retuning it. It's done it 3 times that way.
This morning, while the truck was idling at work with me in it, it threw that same damn code. It's never happened while it's been running, before it's always been right when I start it after it's been sitting for a while. I'm running ghead tunes now.
Will a tune to shut that code out work or should I just replace that sensor? Or both?
