From a post on flatratetech.com....
P1400 "DPF EGR Sensor Circuit Low Voltage Detected"
COULD BE CAUSED BY,
DPFEGR circuit short to GROUND?
Damaged DPF EGR sensor?
VREF short to GND?
Damaged PCM?
Ford had alot of problems with that plasticy DPFE Sensor going bad. I'd start there.
Also, if you have less than 60k miles it may be covered undre re-call.

when i bought my 2000 new it gave a check engine light only after a couple thousand miles so it was covered by the warranty. all i remember it being was somekind of sensor. you may have to take it back to the dealer or a proffesional shop for this one. if it seems to be running normal then get fixed when you can but don't wait to long.
