P0741 on Genesis
Torque Converter Clutch Circuit Performance/Stuck Off
P0741 on Genesis vehicles indicates torque converter clutch circuit performance/stuck off. Au7o has documented this code across 1 Genesis model — most commonly on G70. This code means the torque converter clutch (TCC) is not working as expected and is effectively stuck off, so the converter clutch isn't locking up the way the computer commands it to. The TCC mechanically links the engine to the transmission at cruising speeds to reduce slippage and improve fuel economy, and the computer compares engine RPM to transmission/output speed to verify lockup. When the expected RPM drop from lockup doesn't happen, it sets this performance code. You may notice higher-than-normal RPM at highway speed, reduced fuel economy, and sometimes elevated transmission temperatures.
Common Causes of P0741
- •Low, dirty, or degraded transmission fluid
- •Faulty torque converter clutch (TCC) solenoid
- •Stuck or worn valve body / TCC control valve
- •Failed torque converter (internal clutch worn or slipping)
- •Internal transmission leaks reducing apply pressure
- •Damaged wiring or connector to the TCC solenoid
- •Faulty transmission control module (TCM/PCM)

- Torque Converter Internal Rivet Damage — Scratching Noise / Low-Speed Stall (Campaign T27G)2023
Certain 2023 G70 2.0T models built between April 14, 2022 and June 14, 2022 can suffer internal rivet damage and cracks inside the torque converter. Symptoms are a scratching/grinding noise and, in rare cases, an engine stall at idle or creep speeds, and the fault can set a torque-converter-clutch code. Genesis addressed this with Service Campaign T27G (TSB 23-01-003G), which replaces the torque converter. Importantly, on these cars a stall should be checked against this campaign before any ECM is condemned.

What does P0741 mean on Genesis?▼
P0741 stands for "Torque Converter Clutch Circuit Performance/Stuck Off." This code means the torque converter clutch (TCC) is not working as expected and is effectively stuck off, so the converter clutch isn't locking up the way the computer commands it to. The TCC mechanically links the engine to the transmission at cruising speeds to reduce slippage and improve fuel economy, and the computer compares engine RPM to transmission/output speed to verify lockup. When the expected RPM drop from lockup doesn't happen, it sets this performance code. You may notice higher-than-normal RPM at highway speed, reduced fuel economy, and sometimes elevated transmission temperatures. On Genesis specifically, this code is documented across 1 model.
What causes P0741 on Genesis vehicles?▼
Common causes on Genesis: Low, dirty, or degraded transmission fluid, Faulty torque converter clutch (TCC) solenoid, Stuck or worn valve body / TCC control valve, Failed torque converter (internal clutch worn or slipping), Internal transmission leaks reducing apply pressure. Specific causes vary by model and year — see the per-model sections below.
How much does it cost to fix P0741 on a Genesis?▼
Repair costs vary widely depending on the root cause and specific Genesis model.
