Most Reported On
P0775 is an OBD-II diagnostic trouble code meaning “Pressure Control Solenoid "B".” This generic code indicates a malfunction in the circuit or operation of transmission pressure control solenoid B. Pressure control solenoids regulate the hydraulic line pressure used to apply clutches and shift gears, so a fault affects shift quality and timing. Symptoms can include harsh or slipping shifts, incorrect line pressure, or the transmission entering failsafe mode. Driving with abnormal line pressure can accelerate internal transmission wear. This code is most commonly reported on 2002-2010 Ford Explorer, with repair costs ranging from $900 to $3,500.
