DTC Descriptor
DTC P0751: Shift Solenoid (SS) 1 Valve Performance - Stuck Off
Circuit/System Description
The shift solenoid (SS) valve 1 is part of the lower control valve body. The SS valve 1 is a normally closed (NC) solenoid valve and controls fluid to the clutch select valve 2 and related clutches. During this diagnostic test,
intrusive actions are taken by the transmission control module (TCM) to test the SS valve 1 to see if the valve is stuck OFF. When in first gear engine braking, if first gear ratio is not achieved in a predetermined period of time and the closest gear
ratio detected if fourth, the TCM commands second gear and if second gear ratio is attained this indicates a stuck OFF SS valve 1 and the DTC will set.
Conditions for Running the DTC
• | The transmission input shaft speed is less than 50 RPM. |
• | The vehicle speed is less than 25 km/h (15.6 mph). |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The TCM detects a commanded gear equals first lock, the latest gear ratio equals fourth and gear box slip is less than 100 RPM for 0.125 seconds
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
DTC P0751 is a type C DTC.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTC P0751 is a type C DTC.
Diagnostic Aids
When attempting to set transmission performance DTCs, observe the Freeze Frame and Failure Records to assist in duplicating the failure conditions. Ensure the transmission fluid level is correct and there are no leaks.

Circuit/System Verification
- Perform the
Transmission Fluid Check.
- Operate the vehicle in drive from a complete stop, with the calculated throttle position greater than 15 percent to obtain 56 km/h (35 mph) 2 times.
⇒ | If the DTC resets, go to Circuit/System Testing. |
Circuit/System Testing
- Perform the
Line Pressure Check.
⇒ | If the pressure is out of specification correct that concern first. |
- Perform the
Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Cleaning and retest the DTC as outlined in the Circuit/System Verification steps.
⇒ | If the DTC resets, continue on with testing. |
- Perform the
Control Solenoid Valve and Transmission Control Module Assembly Inspection.
⇒ | If a concern is found, repair or replace the control solenoid (w/body and TCM) valve assembly. |
- Perform the
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 control solenoid (w/body and TCM) valve assembly. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the
Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
