P0752 on Ford vehicles indicates shift solenoid a stuck on. Au7o has documented this code across 1 Ford model — most commonly on Maverick. This code means the transmission computer detected that shift solenoid A is stuck in the 'on' (energized/applied) state, so it is not responding to commands to turn off. Shift solenoids control hydraulic fluid flow to engage gears, and a stuck solenoid can lock the transmission into wrong gears or cause harsh, erratic shifting. This can lead to drivability problems and potential transmission damage if not addressed. Typical repair costs on Ford range from $150 to $6,500, depending on the specific model and root cause.

Common Causes of P0752

  • •Faulty/stuck shift solenoid A
  • •Debris or contamination in the valve body
  • •Dirty or degraded transmission fluid
  • •Electrical short keeping the solenoid energized
  • •Corroded or shorted solenoid wiring/connector
  • •Valve body or internal hydraulic fault
  • •TCM/PCM fault

P0752 on Ford by Model

Ford Maverick(1 issue)

  • 8F35 Transmission Shudder/Buck/Jerk Below 35 mph and Output Carrier Bearing Wear (Early 2022 Builds)2022

    The 2.0L EcoBoost Maverick uses the same 8F35 eight-speed transmission found in other Ford applications (Edge, Nautilus, Transit Connect, Escape), where vehicles equipped with the 8F35 transmission may exhibit a shudder/buck/jerk while driving up to 35 mph (57 km/h) due to software in the powertrain control module (PCM) — this is documented in TSB 21-2389 for the Edge/Nautilus and is widely reported by Maverick owners as carry-over behavior. A separate but related condition involves transmission slipping concerns, harsh engagements and various clutch DTCs (sometimes with torque converter clutch DTCs), caused by worn needle bearings in the output planet carrier assembly (TSB 22-2281). Per the TSB, only 8F35 units built on or before Dec. 20, 2021 are flagged — which in practice means early 2022 model year Mavericks. Drivers typically feel a low-speed shudder under light throttle, harsh 2-3 upshifts on hills, or a flare on the 4-5 shift.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does P0752 mean on Ford?▼

P0752 stands for "Shift Solenoid A Stuck On." This code means the transmission computer detected that shift solenoid A is stuck in the 'on' (energized/applied) state, so it is not responding to commands to turn off. Shift solenoids control hydraulic fluid flow to engage gears, and a stuck solenoid can lock the transmission into wrong gears or cause harsh, erratic shifting. This can lead to drivability problems and potential transmission damage if not addressed. On Ford specifically, this code is documented across 1 model.

What causes P0752 on Ford vehicles?▼

Common causes on Ford: Faulty/stuck shift solenoid A, Debris or contamination in the valve body, Dirty or degraded transmission fluid, Electrical short keeping the solenoid energized, Corroded or shorted solenoid wiring/connector. Specific causes vary by model and year — see the per-model sections below.

How much does it cost to fix P0752 on a Ford?▼

Repair costs on Ford range from $150 to $6,500, depending on the specific model and root cause.
