2008 4.6 2V Upstream Hose Disconnected Test Failure

I have a new to me 2008 F150 Xl 4x4 with the 4.6 V8 2 valve. I am getting a Upstream Hose Disconnect Test failure in Forscan. The value is 0.282. Minimum is -32.768 and maximum is -32.659 according to the Moe 6 Scan. The downstream, stuck open, and egr flow tests are all ok. What is ging on? I replaced the hose that goes to the DPFE sensor. Had vacuum leak there but thats all good now.

Post the actual DTC (fault code). Probably P04xx or P14xx.

Its not throwing a fault code. Yet anyway. I noticed it in the mode 6 scan after i changed the sparkplugs and a test drive. Here is the EGR section from that scan, [EGR Bank 2]

Upstream Hose Disconnected Test
MID: 32
TID: 82
Value: 0.282 kPa
Min: -32.768 kPa
Max: -32.659 kPa

Downstream Hose Disconnected Test
MID: 32
TID: 83
Value: 0.282 kPa
Min: -3.561 kPa
Max: 32.767 kPa

Stuck Open Valve Test
MID: 32
TID: 84
Value: 0.294 kPa
Min: -32.768 kPa
Max: 4.662 kPa

EGR Flow Test
MID: 32
TID: 85
Value: 14.237 kPa
Min: 1.494 kPa
Max: 32.767 kPa
Everything else passes except the upstream hose disconnect.

If it's not posting any fault codes, leave it alone. You've gone down a rabbit hole that didn't need to be entered.

Most likely, your PCM needs to be re-flashed to a newer version software that corrects the MIN/MAX limits for MID$32 TID$82. There's a note in the OBDII reference manual (beginning in the '09 edition) regarding this.
