What Does P2725 Mean?
The TCM has detected an electrical fault in the pressure control solenoid E circuit, which could include open circuits, shorts, or abnormal resistance. This prevents the TCM from properly controlling hydraulic pressure through this solenoid.
Common Causes
35%
Failed pressure control solenoid E with open or shorted windings
30%
Damaged wiring harness with broken wires or shorts
20%
Corroded or damaged solenoid connector
10%
TCM internal circuit board failure
5%
Transmission fluid intrusion into solenoid connector
Diagnostic Steps
1
Step 1: Measure resistance of solenoid E at connector; should be within manufacturer specs (typically 3-20 ohms)
2
Step 2: Check for voltage supply at solenoid connector with key on; verify TCM is providing ground signal
3
Step 3: Inspect connector for bent pins, corrosion, or fluid contamination; clean and repair as needed
4
Step 4: Perform continuity test on wiring from TCM to solenoid; check for shorts to ground or power
5
Step 5: If all wiring and solenoid test good, suspect TCM internal driver failure
Estimated Repair Cost
$200 - $1,200
Parts + labor, varies by vehicle and location
The TCM has detected an electrical fault in the pressure control solenoid E circuit, which could include open circuits, shorts, or abnormal resistance. This prevents the TCM from properly controlling hydraulic pressure through this solenoid.
The most common cause of P2725 (Pressure Control Solenoid "E" Electrical) is: Failed pressure control solenoid E with open or shorted windings
Typical repair costs for P2725 range from $200 to $1,200, depending on the vehicle, location, and whether you do it yourself or go to a shop.
May cause transmission to default to limp mode with limited gear availability. Can lead to unsafe passing situations or difficulty merging.
Start by connecting an OBD2 scanner to read the code and any freeze frame data. Then follow the diagnostic steps specific to P2725 to identify the root cause.
