Pressure Control Solenoid Valve ‘B’ Hydraulic System Fault


Table of contents

P0775 ACURA Possible Causes

  • Low transmission fluid level
  • Dirty transmission fluid
  • Faulty line pressure solenoid ‘B’ valve
  • Line pressure solenoid ‘B’ valve harness is open or shorted
  • Line pressure solenoid ‘B’ valve circuit poor electrical connection

How do I fix code P0775 ACURA?

  Check the “Possible Causes” listed above. Visually inspect the related wiring harness and connectors. Check for damaged components and look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded connector’s pins.

Tech Notes

  • When a transmission solenoid is malfunctioned, in most cases the problem is not the electrical part of the solenoid; the problem is foreign material obstructing the mechanical function of the solenoid or the flow of the fluid through the transmission valve body. If the transmission fluid is dirty, it’s recommended to change the transmission fluid and if possible removing the transmission pan for further diagnosis. Excessive debris or metal particles on the transmission pan could be an indication that there is a mechanical transmission failure and that the transmission will need to be rebuilt or replaced.

Cost of diagnosing the P0775 ACURA code

  The cost of diagnosing the P0775 ACURA code is 1.0 hour of labor. The auto repair labor rates vary by location, your vehicle’s make and model, and even your engine type. Most auto repairs shops charge between $75 and $150 per hour.

When is the code detected

  The P0775 is detected when TCM detects an improper voltage drop when it tries to operate the solenoid valve.

Possible Symptoms

  • Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
  • Transmission shift shock

P0775 ACURA Description

  The Pressure Control (PC) Solenoid Valve an electronic pressure regulator that controls transmission line pressure based on current flow through its coil windings. As current flow is increased, the magnetic field produced by the coil moves the solenoid’s plunger further away from the exhaust port. Opening the exhaust port decreases the output fluid pressure regulated by the PC solenoid valve, which ultimately decreases line pressure. The line pressure solenoid valve regulates the oil pump discharge pressure to suit the driving condition in response to a signal sent from the Transmission Control Module (TCM).
