Pressure Control Solenoid "E" Stuck On

What Does P2724 Mean?

The TCM has determined that pressure control solenoid E is stuck in the on position and cannot be turned off. This creates constant hydraulic pressure when it should be modulated, leading to improper clutch application and potential transmission damage.

Diagnostic Steps

1

Step 1: Disconnect solenoid E electrical connector and retest to determine if fault is mechanical or electrical

2

Step 2: Measure resistance of solenoid E; compare to specifications (typically 3-20 ohms depending on vehicle)

3

Step 3: Inspect wiring harness and connector for corrosion, damaged pins, or shorts to power

4

Step 4: Command solenoid off with scan tool and monitor actual current draw

5

Step 5: If electrical tests pass, remove valve body to inspect solenoid and valve for mechanical binding

Estimated Repair Cost

$250 - $1,500
