2017-10-10

Description:

  • This fault code indicates an issue with the control circuit for pressure control solenoid C in the transmission. It means that the signal or voltage readings from the solenoid are not within the expected range, which can affect the proper functioning of the transmission.

Possible Symptoms:

  • Illuminated Check Engine Light

  • Transmission may shift harshly or exhibit erratic shifting behavior

  • Reduced performance and acceleration

  • Possible transmission overheating

  • Possible transmission slipping or failure to engage gears

Possible Causes:

  • Faulty pressure control solenoid C

  • Wiring or connector issues in the solenoid circuit

  • Low transmission fluid level or poor quality fluid

  • Internal transmission mechanical problems

  • Faulty transmission control module (TCM)

Related Parts:

  • Pressure Control Solenoid: This solenoid regulates the oil flow in the transmission. Problems with this solenoid lead to engine misfire, poor fuel economy, poor acceleration

Possible Solutions:

  • Inspect and replace the pressure control solenoid C if necessary

  • Check and repair any wiring or connector issues in the solenoid circuit

  • Ensure the transmission fluid level is correct and the fluid is in good condition

  • If internal transmission problems are detected, further diagnostics and repairs may be required

  • Test and replace the transmission control module (TCM) if deemed faulty
