Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Circuit/System Description
The line pressure control (PC) solenoid is part of the control solenoid (w/body and TCM) valve assembly and has no seviceable parts. The line PC solenoid regulates the transmission fluid line pressure. The TCM varies the current to the normally high line PC solenoid valve from 0.1 amp for maximum line pressure, to 1.1 amps for minimum line pressure. This is accomplished by varying the desired line pressure in kPa (psi).
