P2763

Torque Converter Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Control Circuit High

Q: Is it safe to drive with P2763?

Light driving is usually possible, but the torque converter clutch may shudder or engage harshly, and a stuck-applied converter can stall the engine at a stop. Have it repaired soon.

Q: Can I just clear P2763?

It returns once the module re-tests the circuit high. Fix the solenoid, wiring, or fluid issue first, then clear and re-test.

Automatic transmission Generic OBD-II Medium

What it means

P2763 means the PCM saw a high (out-of-range) voltage on the torque converter clutch (TCC) pressure control solenoid circuit. This solenoid modulates how the torque converter locks up, so a fault causes shudder, harsh lock-up, or slipping, and can hurt fuel economy. If the converter stays applied you may feel a lug or stall when stopping. The cause is usually a wiring short or a failed solenoid, sometimes aggravated by low or dirty fluid.

Medium

Can I keep driving? Driveable but expect torque-converter shudder, harsh lock-up, or reduced fuel economy; if the converter stays locked you may feel a lug or stall when stopping, so fix it soon.

How to diagnose & fix

Work through it in order

Check transmission fluid level and condition.
Scan and watch the TCC solenoid command versus actual lock-up data.
Inspect the solenoid wiring and connector for a short-to-power or open.
Measure the solenoid resistance against specification.
Inspect the valve body; replace the solenoid if faulty, then clear and re-test.
