First, I want to say hello! First time Registering. Love this site, and has always been extremely helpful!
I have a Transmission Solenoid problem. First, I was getting an error code of P0751 for Solenoid SS1/A. I replaced the whole harness and Solenoid A and car worked for a little while.
My check engine light came on again and I did another diagnostic and received a code P0761, which is the SS3 solenoid or Solenoid "C". When I got home, I did another diagnostic on now received a 2nd error code of P0751, Solenoid SS1 or Solenoid A. So, now I am a little confused. Can One solenoid affect the other? Could Solenoid C have gone bad and then affect Solenoid A or vice versa? I never previously had a Solenoid C issue, only A, now I have them both after a full harness install.
Both Solenoid C and A are replaced, but received same error codes again when driving about 400 miles, first P0761, then P0751. I thought maybe it was the PCM, so I replaced the PCM, and it worked for awhile, then bam, I am getting the same errors, so I do not think it is a PCM issue.
I do not think it is the PCM Power Relay, but I could be wrong. I know I can test the voltage on the Solenoids, to see if they really are bad, correct? Or is there something else that I may be missing, connection from the harness to the PCM perhaps or something else? I checked all fuses, great, all relays work, but I never did test them, just visual. Is there something I can do to do further testing? Anyone know if I am missing some steps here or looking in the wrong direction?
