Posted by

P2761 Possible Causes

  • Faulty control solenoid assembly
  • Control solenoid assembly harness is open or shorted
  • Poor electrical connection in control solenoid assembly circuit

How to Fix Code P2761

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 pins.

Possible Symptoms

P2761 Meaning

The Torque Converter Clutch Pulse Width Modulation (TCC PWM) solenoid controls the fluid acting on the torque converter clutch valve. The torque converter clutch valve controls the application and release of the TCC. The solenoid mounts to the control valve body in the transmission. The solenoid receives ignition voltage through the OFF/ON/CRANK voltage circuit. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) controls the solenoid by providing a ground path on the TCC PWM solenoid control circuit. Current flows through the solenoid coil based on the duty cycle, the percentage of ON and OFF time. The TCC PWM solenoid provides smooth TCC engagement by operating during a duty cycle percentage of ON time.
