P0755 on Chrysler
Shift Solenoid B Malfunction
P0755 on Chrysler vehicles indicates shift solenoid b malfunction. Au7o has documented this code across 2 Chrysler models — most commonly on Cirrus, Prowler. This code means the transmission control module commanded shift solenoid 'B' but did not see the expected electrical response, indicating an electrical fault in that solenoid or its circuit. Shift solenoids are small electrically-operated valves inside the automatic transmission that route pressurized fluid to engage the correct gears at the right time. When the computer detects an open, short, or out-of-range signal on solenoid B's circuit, it flags this code. You may notice harsh or wrong-gear shifts, the transmission stuck in one gear, or 'limp' mode. Typical repair costs on Chrysler range from $250 to $2,000, depending on the specific model and root cause.
Common Causes of P0755
- •Failed or stuck shift solenoid B
- •Damaged, shorted, or corroded solenoid wiring/connector
- •Low or dirty/contaminated transmission fluid
- •Clogged transmission filter or fluid passages
- •Valve body wear or internal hydraulic fault
- •Faulty transmission control module (TCM)
- •Internal transmission mechanical wear
P0755 on Chrysler by Model
Chrysler Cirrus(1 issue)
- 41TE Automatic Transmission Solenoid Failure1995-2000
The 41TE (A604) automatic transmission is prone to solenoid pack failure causing erratic shifting, limp mode, and harsh engagement. The 41TE was one of the first fully electronic automatic transmissions and reliability suffered.
Chrysler Prowler(1 issue)
- 42LE Shift Solenoid Pack Failure / Limp-In Mode1997-2002
The rear-mounted 42LE (A606) automatic can drop into limp-in (fail-safe) mode when the electronic shift solenoid pack develops internal faults. Symptoms are the transmission locking into a single gear (commonly 2nd, or only 1st and reverse) until the ignition is cycled, often accompanied by a check-engine/transmission light. This is distinct from the fluid-overheating and AutoStick harsh-shift issues: here the solenoid pack itself (or its wiring/connector) is the root cause and typically sets solenoid-performance codes.

What does P0755 mean on Chrysler?▼
P0755 stands for "Shift Solenoid B Malfunction." This code means the transmission control module commanded shift solenoid 'B' but did not see the expected electrical response, indicating an electrical fault in that solenoid or its circuit. Shift solenoids are small electrically-operated valves inside the automatic transmission that route pressurized fluid to engage the correct gears at the right time. When the computer detects an open, short, or out-of-range signal on solenoid B's circuit, it flags this code. You may notice harsh or wrong-gear shifts, the transmission stuck in one gear, or 'limp' mode. On Chrysler specifically, this code is documented across 2 models.
