P0760 on Dodge
Shift Solenoid C Malfunction
P0760 on Dodge vehicles indicates shift solenoid c malfunction. Au7o has documented this code across 1 Dodge model — most commonly on Charger. This is a transmission code. Modern automatic transmissions use electrically controlled shift solenoids to direct fluid and engage the correct gears. P0760 means the transmission control module has detected an electrical fault with Shift Solenoid 'C' — the solenoid is not responding the way the computer commands, indicating an open circuit, a short, or a mechanical sticking issue. This often results in harsh or incorrect shifts, being stuck in one gear, or the transmission entering a protective 'limp' mode. Typical repair costs on Dodge range from $300 to $3,500, depending on the specific model and root cause.
Common Causes of P0760
- •Failed or stuck Shift Solenoid C
- •Low, dirty, or contaminated transmission fluid
- •Damaged wiring or corroded connector to the solenoid
- •Internal transmission valve body wear or debris
- •Clogged solenoid screen or fluid passage
- •Faulty transmission control module (less common)

- 42RLE 4-Speed Transmission Solenoid and Connector Failure2006-2010
The 42RLE 4-speed automatic in V6 Chargers suffers from solenoid failures and corrosion in the 10-pin solenoid harness connector. Causes slipping, harsh shifts, limp mode, and P0750/P0755/P0760/P0765 codes. Cup plug for park pawl anchor shaft can fail (recall).
