P075D

Moderate

Shift Solenoid G Electrical

What Does P075D Mean?

The electrical circuit for Shift Solenoid G has a fault. The TCM has detected an open circuit, short to ground, or short to battery voltage in the solenoid G wiring. This is a purely electrical fault code indicating the solenoid cannot be properly driven by the TCM, preventing the associated gear from engaging or disengaging correctly.

Common Causes

35%

Open or short circuit in the solenoid G wiring harness

transmission wiring harness
internal harness
wire terminals

30%

Shift solenoid G internal coil failure (open or shorted windings)

20%

Corroded or damaged transmission connector causing high resistance or intermittent connection

transmission connector
connector pins
connector seals

10%

TCM solenoid driver circuit failure

transmission control module

5%

Ground circuit issue for the solenoid pack

ground wire
ground terminal
solenoid ground bus

Diagnostic Steps

1

Measure solenoid G resistance at the transmission connector — an open reading or near-zero resistance confirms a coil failure.

2

Check for voltage at the solenoid G circuit at the transmission connector with the key on to verify the TCM is sending a signal.

3

Inspect the external transmission harness connector for corrosion, bent or pushed-back pins, and fluid contamination.

4

Perform a continuity and short-to-ground test on each wire in the solenoid G circuit from the TCM connector to the transmission connector.

5

If wiring is good and solenoid resistance is out of spec, replace solenoid G.

What causes P075D?

The most common cause of P075D (Shift Solenoid G Electrical) is: Open or short circuit in the solenoid G wiring harness

How much does it cost to fix P075D?

Typical repair costs for P075D range from $150 to $900, depending on the vehicle, location, and whether you do it yourself or go to a shop.

Is it safe to drive with P075D?

The transmission may default to limp mode. Driving at reduced speed to a repair facility is generally safe, but shift quality may be severely degraded.

How do I diagnose P075D?

Start by connecting an OBD2 scanner to read the code and any freeze frame data. Then follow the diagnostic steps specific to P075D to identify the root cause.
