P2764 BUICK code

The P2764 code is a standard OBD-II trouble code for the torque converter clutch pressure control solenoid circuit. The powertrain control module (PCM) uses the engine load and speed, as well as the vehicle speed and throttle position to select the needed torque converter clutch application (called “lock up”) degree.

Where is the torque converter clutch solenoid located?

► What Does a Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid do? Positioned between the rear of the engine and the front of the transmission is the torque converter. The torque converter is responsible for transmitting the engine’s torque and power to the transmission.

How do you bypass a TCC solenoid?

To bypass the shift and TCC solenoids, you simply need to connect standard 194 light bulbs to these individual circuits coming from the PCM and then connect the other side of the bulbs to ignition B+. The light bulbs will then serve as a “load” which will simulate the solenoids.

What is engine code P2761?

P2761 is a specific OBD-II code that indicates a problem with the main circuit of the pressure control solenoid within the TCC being in an open position. The TCC connects the turbine shaft to the torque converter’s shell, creating a one-to-one connection between engine output and transmission input.

How much does it cost to replace a torque converter clutch solenoid?

The torque converter itself is relatively inexpensive (between $150 and $350, depending on the vehicle), but 5-10 hours of labor is involved since the transmission must be removed in order to replace the torque converter.



Torque Converter Replacement Cost.

Repair Cost Range
Transmission Shop $600 to $1000

What happens when a torque converter clutch solenoid goes bad?

If the solenoid is faulty, there won’t be an accurate measure of how much transmission fluid is a need which could lead to abnormal fluid pressures. As a consequence, there could be irregular behaviors such as poor gas mileage, engine stalling, among others.

How do you fix a torque converter clutch circuit that is stuck off?

What Repairs Will Fix P0741?

  1. Replace the torque converter clutch solenoid.
  2. Replace the torque converter or clutch.
  3. Change transmission fluid and filter.
  4. Repair/replace damaged wiring and connectors.
  5. Repair/replace TCM or ECU.
  6. Install a rebuilt or remanufactured transmission.


Where is the torque converter switch located?

Zitat von Youtube: Okay between the transmission. And the engine it connects the engine and transmission. Okay the transmission to the flywheel. And it has usually four bolts that it attaches to the flywheel.

What happens when a shift solenoid fails?

You experience delayed gear shifting and a sense of pulling or slipping when trying to shift between gears. The vehicle will not downshift as you slow down. An inability for the solenoid valve to operate may prevent your car from downshifting, and the engine will continue to rev as you attempt to brake.

How do I fix error code P2761?

What Repairs Will Fix P2761?

  1. Change the transmission fluid and filter.
  2. Repair transmission fluid leaks.
  3. Clean corrosion from connectors.
  4. Repair or replace wiring.
  5. Replace faulty torque converter clutch pressure control solenoid.
  6. Repair or replace a faulty torque converter clutch.
  7. Repair or replace defective torque converter.

What does shift solenoid B Electrical mean?

What the P0758 code means. Shift solenoid B allows the transmission to shift between second and third gear. If the PCM records code P0758, it indicates that the PCM cannot see the proper change in engine RPMs or the correct increase in road speed that should be happening during a shift from second to third gear.
