P08CCShift Solenoid J
- Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
- Turns on the check-engine light
- Matters for the ITP
- Can trigger limp mode
- How the car detects it
- Base code for the tenth on/off shift solenoid of an automatic transmission; which valve gets the letter J is decided by the manufacturer. No manufacturer documents this code publicly. Ford's gasoline OBD summary ends its shift solenoid list at SS E, the Genesis 8-speed bulletin stops at solenoid F, and GM and Toyota label their later valves as pressure control or clutch solenoids, so J stays unused in the known sources. CARB requires automatic transmission solenoids to be checked for functional response and circuit faults. A manufacturer reporting the fault type through a DTC suffix, as Toyota does for pressure control solenoid L, would store such faults under this base code instead of P08CD to P08D4. Expect harsh, missing or substitute-gear shifts.
- What you may notice
- Check engine or transmission warning light on
- Harsh, delayed or missing shifts
- Transmission may hold a substitute gear
- Likely causes
- LikelyShift solenoid J faulty (coil or valve)
- PossibleContaminated or degraded transmission fluid restricting the valve
- PossibleConnector or harness fault between TCM and solenoid
- RareTransmission control module output fault
- Inspection (ITP)
- Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
