P2763 Fault Code

P2763 OBD-II Trouble Code Short Description

Torque Converter Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Control Circuit High

What does trouble code P2763 mean?

The P2763 code signifies an issue with the Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) Pressure Control Solenoid. This solenoid plays a crucial role in regulating the pressure applied to the torque converter clutch, allowing for optimal shifting and performance. When the TCC Pressure Control Solenoid Circuit reports a high voltage condition, it indicates an electrical fault that can lead to various driveability issues.

Symptoms

What are the symptoms of the P2763 code?

Drivers may experience a variety of symptoms if the P2763 code is present, such as:

  • Harsh or erratic shifting patterns during acceleration.
  • Slipping of the transmission, especially at higher speeds.
  • Increased engine RPMs without a corresponding increase in vehicle speed.
  • Increased fuel consumption due to inefficient transmission operation.

Causes

What causes the P2763 code?

Several factors can lead to the P2763 fault code, such as:

  • Damaged or shorted wiring harness that connects to the TCC pressure control solenoid.
  • A malfunctioning TCC pressure control solenoid itself.
  • Poor electrical connections or corrosion that impede the solenoid's operation.
  • Issues within the transmission control module (TCM) or engine control module (ECM).

Possible Solutions

How to fix P2763?

To address the P2763 code, the following steps can be taken:

  • Inspect and repair any damaged electrical wiring or connectors related to the TCC pressure control solenoid.
  • Test the solenoid for proper function and replace if it is found to be faulty.
  • Ensure that the transmission fluid level is correct and that the fluid is in good condition.
  • If the issue persists, consider scanning for additional trouble codes that could provide more context on the problem, and check the TCM or ECM for faults.
