Shift Solenoid A Control Circuit Range/Performance

Where it lives

For P0972, the description names the solenoid as the part involved.

Check these first

• A shift solenoid A that shifts late or erratically
• A short or open in the shift solenoid A circuit
• Low or dirty transmission fluid
• A clogged transmission filter
• A TCM output fault for shift solenoid A

What to do next

1. Road test and watch shift solenoid A data
2. Check the fluid level and condition
3. Test the shift solenoid A circuit for short or open
4. Measure shift solenoid A resistance
5. Replace the solenoid if the range is off
6. Clear the code and retest
