What Does P2722 Mean?
The TCM has detected a malfunction with pressure control solenoid E. This is a general fault code indicating the solenoid is not operating correctly, which could be electrical or mechanical in nature.
Common Causes
40%
Failed pressure control solenoid E
25%
Contaminated or low transmission fluid affecting solenoid operation
20%
Damaged wiring or connector to pressure control solenoid E
10%
Internal transmission valve body issues or hydraulic leaks
5%
Failed transmission control module (TCM/PCM)
Diagnostic Steps
1
Step 1: Check transmission fluid level and condition; look for burnt smell, dark color, or contamination
2
Step 2: Inspect solenoid E connector and wiring for damage, corrosion, or loose connections
3
Step 3: Measure resistance of pressure control solenoid E and compare to manufacturer specifications
4
Step 4: Check voltage supply and ground to solenoid E with key on, engine running
5
Step 5: Monitor solenoid E command signals and operation using scan tool live data during test drive
Estimated Repair Cost
$200 - $900
Parts + labor, varies by vehicle and location
The TCM has detected a malfunction with pressure control solenoid E. This is a general fault code indicating the solenoid is not operating correctly, which could be electrical or mechanical in nature.
The most common cause of P2722 (Pressure Control Solenoid "E") is: Failed pressure control solenoid E
Typical repair costs for P2722 range from $200 to $900, depending on the vehicle, location, and whether you do it yourself or go to a shop.
May cause shifting issues, harsh engagement, or limp mode activation. Vehicle is typically drivable but transmission performance will be degraded and damage may occur with extended operation.
Start by connecting an OBD2 scanner to read the code and any freeze frame data. Then follow the diagnostic steps specific to P2722 to identify the root cause.
