P2714
Pressure Control Solenoid D Performance or Stuck Off
The transmission control system has detected that pressure control solenoid D is not responding correctly. This can cause shifting problems, harsh shifts, slipping, or delayed engagement. The cause may be electrical, hydraulic, or an internal transmission issue.

Quick answer
What it means
Can you drive with it?
Most common causes
- Low transmission fluid level or fluid condition problems
- Wiring damage, loose connector, corrosion, or poor terminal contact in the solenoid circuit
- Failed pressure control solenoid D
Typical repair cost
DIY usually runs $20-$150. Typical shop repair lands around $150-$1,200, depending on the root cause.
01 / Definition
P2714 is a manufacturer-specific powertrain code indicating that the transmission control module has detected a performance problem with pressure control solenoid D, or that the solenoid is stuck in the off state. This solenoid helps regulate hydraulic pressure inside the transmission for proper gear changes and clutch operation. The fault may be caused by low fluid, electrical wiring issues, a failed solenoid, or internal transmission wear.
02 / Drive status
With caution. The vehicle may still move, but shifting quality and transmission protection can be affected. Continued driving can make the problem worse if the transmission is slipping, overheating, or stuck in a gear.
03 / Symptoms
- Harsh or delayed shifting
- Transmission slipping
- Check engine light or transmission warning light
- Limp mode or reduced power
- Delayed engagement when shifting into drive or reverse
04 / Causes
| 1 | Low transmission fluid level or fluid condition problems | high |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | Wiring damage, loose connector, corrosion, or poor terminal contact in the solenoid circuit | high |
| 3 | Failed pressure control solenoid D | medium |
| 4 | Transmission control module command or calibration issue | medium |
| 5 | Internal hydraulic or mechanical transmission fault | low |
05 / Diagnostic sequence
- 01Check transmission fluid level, condition, and for signs of contamination or burning.
- 02Inspect the transmission harness and connectors for damage, corrosion, looseness, or fluid intrusion.
- 03Use a scan tool to check for related transmission codes and compare commanded versus actual pressure or shift behavior.
- 04Test the resistance and operation of pressure control solenoid D according to the vehicle service information.
- 05If electrical checks pass, evaluate transmission pressure, valve body operation, and internal mechanical condition.
06 / Repairs
| 1 | Correct low or contaminated transmission fluid and address any leaks | $20-$250 |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | Repair wiring, terminals, connectors, or related circuit faults | $50-$400 |
| 3 | Replace the pressure control solenoid or solenoid pack if testing confirms failure | $150-$700 |
| 4 | Repair valve body or internal transmission problems if pressure control faults remain | $500-$1,200 |

08 / FAQ
Can low transmission fluid cause P2714?
Yes. Low or degraded fluid can reduce hydraulic pressure and trigger pressure control solenoid performance faults.
Will replacing the solenoid always fix P2714?
No. Wiring faults, fluid problems, valve body issues, or internal transmission damage can also cause this code.
Is P2714 a serious code?
Yes. It can affect drivability and may lead to transmission damage if the underlying problem is not corrected.
