DTC Descriptors
DTC P0796
- Pressure Control (PC) Solenoid 3 - Stuck Off
DTC P0797
- Pressure Control (PC) Solenoid 3 - Stuck On
Circuit/System Description
The clutch pressure control solenoid 3 is part of the control solenoid valve assembly and is not serviced separately. The transmission control
module supplies 12 volts to the clutch pressure control solenoid 3 on the high side driver 1 circuit. The transmission control module controls the
clutch pressure control solenoid 3 through the clutch pressure control solenoid 3 control circuit. The normally high clutch pressure control solenoid
3 controls fluid to hybrid low, 1-2 and the 4th clutch assemblies when commanded ON and exhausts fluid when commanded OFF. The clutch
pressure control solenoid 3 regulates the transmission fluid pressure to the hybrid low, 1-2 and the 4th clutch assemblies.
Conditions for Running the DTC
P0796 or P0797
* The engine run time is greater than 1 second.
* Shift solenoid valve 1 is not in a transition state.
