P0741 on Mitsubishi
Torque Converter Clutch Circuit Performance/Stuck Off
P0741 on Mitsubishi vehicles indicates torque converter clutch circuit performance/stuck off. Au7o has documented this code across 1 Mitsubishi model — most commonly on Outlander Sport. 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. Typical repair costs on Mitsubishi range from $200 to $4,000, depending on the specific model and root cause.
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)
P0741 on Mitsubishi by Model
Mitsubishi Outlander Sport(1 issue)
- CVT Judder and Hesitation2011-2026
The Outlander Sport CVT develops a judder during low-speed acceleration and deceleration. The transmission hesitates when pulling away from stops, and the simulated shift points feel rough and inconsistent.

What does P0741 mean on Mitsubishi?▼
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 Mitsubishi specifically, this code is documented across 1 model.
What causes P0741 on Mitsubishi vehicles?▼
Common causes on Mitsubishi: 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.
