P075C
Shift Solenoid G Stuck On
Transmission
Generic OBD-II
Medium
What it means
P075C means shift solenoid G is stuck in the applied (on) position, so its hydraulic circuit stays engaged and the transmission can't shift normally through that solenoid's gears. It usually shows up as rough shifts or being stuck in gear, most often from contaminated fluid, a sticking valve body, or a failed solenoid.
Medium
Can I keep driving? Usually drivable but with rough or limited shifting; repair soon to prevent added transmission wear.
