I have code p1401 and p1409, it will crank but will not start. I've tried disconnecting the DPFE sensor but nothing.

When you turn the key on without cranking the engine over can you hear the fuel pump turn on for about 5 seconds? Also, will the engine run on starting fluid?

P1401 - Differential Pressure Feedback EGR Circuit High Voltage:
P1409 - Exhaust Gas Recirculation System Leak Detected:

If you can hear the pump and it won't run on starting fluid we need to check for spark, this video will show you how:

How does it sound when the engine is cranking over? We should do a compression test to make sure the engine is not hurt internally.
