What Does P076E Mean?
Shift Solenoid H is exhibiting intermittent electrical behavior. The TCM detects sporadic voltage or current anomalies in the solenoid H circuit that cause unpredictable shift quality in the gear range controlled by solenoid H. This results in occasional harsh shifts, flares, or momentary slipping that come and go unpredictably.
Common Causes
35%
Loose or corroded transmission harness connector causing intermittent contact on solenoid H circuit
30%
Shift solenoid H developing an intermittent internal electrical fault
20%
Chafed or heat-damaged wiring making intermittent contact
10%
Degraded transmission fluid causing intermittent solenoid sticking
5%
Intermittent TCM driver circuit output for solenoid H
Diagnostic Steps
1
Monitor solenoid H duty cycle and voltage in real-time while driving to capture the intermittent condition.
2
Wiggle-test the external transmission connector while watching solenoid H data for signal dropouts or fluctuations.
3
Inspect connector pins for corrosion, looseness, or thermal discoloration.
4
Check solenoid H resistance at both ambient and operating temperature to detect thermal intermittent failures.
5
If external wiring passes, inspect the internal harness and replace solenoid H if intermittent behavior is confirmed.
Estimated Repair Cost

The most common cause of P076E (Shift Solenoid H Intermittent) is: Loose or corroded transmission harness connector causing intermittent contact on solenoid H circuit
Typical repair costs for P076E range from $200 to $1,000, depending on the vehicle, location, and whether you do it yourself or go to a shop.
Intermittent shifts can cause unexpected vehicle behavior. Cautious driving is acceptable for a short period, but diagnose and repair before the fault becomes constant.
Start by connecting an OBD2 scanner to read the code and any freeze frame data. Then follow the diagnostic steps specific to P076E to identify the root cause.
