P2760
Torque Converter Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Control Circuit Intermittent
Transmission
Generic OBD-II
Medium
What it means
P2760 means the control circuit for the torque-converter clutch (TCC) pressure control solenoid is dropping out intermittently — often a loose connector or a marginal solenoid. Because the TCC locks the converter, symptoms include shudder, slipping lockup, and occasionally the engine stumbling or stalling as you come to a stop. The engine still starts normally.

Can I keep driving? Drivable, but you may feel shudder, harsh lockup, or the engine stumbling as you slow to a stop. Get it looked at soon.

How to diagnose & fix
Work through it in order
- Check transmission fluid level and condition.
- Inspect the TCC solenoid wiring and connector for intermittent faults.
- Test the TCC solenoid resistance and operation.
- Scan for companion TCC codes (P2757–P2763).
- Replace the solenoid or repair wiring. Clear and re-test.
FAQ
Quick answers
Is it safe to drive with P2760?+
Usually, but if the converter clutch grabs improperly the engine can stall at stops. Repair it soon to avoid being stranded.
Can I just clear P2760?+
An intermittent fault will re-set the code. Fix the wiring or solenoid rather than just clearing.
