DTC Descriptor
DTC P0751
- Shift Solenoid (SS) 1 Valve Performance - Stuck Off

Circuit/System Description

The shift solenoid 1 and transmission control module are part of the control solenoid valve assembly and are not serviced separately. The transmission control module supplies 12 V to shift solenoid 1 on the high side driver 1 circuit. The transmission control module controls the normally closed shift solenoid 1 on the shift solenoid 1 control circuit. The shift solenoid 1 controls the transmission fluid to the shift solenoid valve (523).

Conditions for Running the DTC

* Any transmission shift or engine On command.
* Line pressure command is greater than 325 kpa.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The transmission control module detects shift solenoid valve 1 is OFF when commanded ON.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* P0751 is a Type A DTC.
* The driver information center may display ENGINE NOT AVAILABLE SERVICE SOON.
* The internal combustion engine may not start.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

P0751 is a Type A DTC.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Verify that P0966, P0967, P0969, P0970, P0971, P0973, P0974, P0976, P0977, P2720, P2721, P2728, P2729, or P2730 is not set.

If any of the DTCs are set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle.

2. Vehicle ON, in Park, open the hood. The internal combustion engine should start and transmission fluid pressure switch 1 on the scan tool should transition from Low to High.

If the engine does not start and the transmission fluid pressure switch 1 parameter does transition from Low to High, inspect the control valve body shift solenoid valve (523) for a stuck off condition. Refer to Control Valve Body Diagnostic Inspection Control Valve Body Diagnostic Inspection.
If the engine starts and the transmission fluid pressure switch 1 parameter does not transition from Low to High, inspect the transmission fluid pressure switch 1 for a stuck Low condition. Refer to Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Solenoid Performance Test Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Solenoid Performance Test.

3. Perform the Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Inspection Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Inspection.
4. Perform the Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Solenoid Performance Test Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Solenoid Performance Test.

If the shift solenoid 1 is found to be leaking or stuck OFF, replace the Q8 control solenoid valve assembly.

If the control solenoid valve assembly tests normal, inspect the shift solenoid valve (523) and hydraulic circuits for a leak or a stuck valve. Refer to Control Valve Body Diagnostic Inspection Control Valve Body Diagnostic Inspection.
