P0776 on Infiniti
Pressure Control Solenoid B Performance/Stuck Off
P0776 on Infiniti vehicles indicates pressure control solenoid b performance/stuck off. Au7o has documented this code across 1 Infiniti model — most commonly on QX55. This code means the transmission's Pressure Control Solenoid B is not performing correctly and is behaving as if stuck in the 'off' position. Pressure control solenoids regulate the hydraulic fluid pressure used to apply clutches and bands and to control shift quality, so when one underperforms the transmission may shift harshly, slip, flare between gears, or feel inconsistent. The transmission control module sets this code when the fluid pressure or response it measures doesn't match what it commanded from that solenoid. It generally indicates a hydraulic performance issue with the solenoid or its fluid circuit rather than just a wiring fault. Typical repair costs on Infiniti range from $200 to $8,000, depending on the specific model and root cause.
Common Causes of P0776
- •Stuck or failed pressure control solenoid B
- •Low, dirty, or degraded transmission fluid
- •Clogged solenoid screen or valve body passages
- •Sticking or worn valve body components
- •Wiring or connector problem at the solenoid
- •Internal transmission wear or pressure loss
- •Faulty transmission control module
P0776 on Infiniti by Model
Infiniti QX55(1 issue)
- CVT (Jatco Xtronic) Shudder, Hesitation and Overheating2022-2024
The QX55 pairs the torque-rich VC-Turbo engine with a Jatco Xtronic CVT. Owners and technicians report the classic Nissan/Infiniti CVT complaints: a rubber-band or 'revving' feel where engine RPM flares without corresponding acceleration, low-speed judder/shudder while slowing to a stop, hesitation and turbo lag off the line, and overheating under sustained load. CVTs are sensitive to the engine's low-end torque, and heat plus fluid breakdown accelerate internal wear. Judder trouble codes such as P17F0/P17F1 are associated with the family.

What does P0776 mean on Infiniti?▼
P0776 stands for "Pressure Control Solenoid B Performance/Stuck Off." This code means the transmission's Pressure Control Solenoid B is not performing correctly and is behaving as if stuck in the 'off' position. Pressure control solenoids regulate the hydraulic fluid pressure used to apply clutches and bands and to control shift quality, so when one underperforms the transmission may shift harshly, slip, flare between gears, or feel inconsistent. The transmission control module sets this code when the fluid pressure or response it measures doesn't match what it commanded from that solenoid. It generally indicates a hydraulic performance issue with the solenoid or its fluid circuit rather than just a wiring fault. On Infiniti specifically, this code is documented across 1 model.
What causes P0776 on Infiniti vehicles?▼
Common causes on Infiniti: Stuck or failed pressure control solenoid B, Low, dirty, or degraded transmission fluid, Clogged solenoid screen or valve body passages, Sticking or worn valve body components, Wiring or connector problem at the solenoid. Specific causes vary by model and year — see the per-model sections below.
How much does it cost to fix P0776 on a Infiniti?▼
