What does Solenoid Switch valve latched in Lr position mean?
What does Solenoid Switch valve latched in Lr position mean?
P1776 – Solenoid Switch Valve Latched in LR Position (this is a transmission issue which may involve replacing the valve body and solenoid pack; on some models there is a TSB on this problem so be firm with your dealer / Chrysler).
What is this code P1776?
Error Code P1776 is defined as Transmission Control Switch Circuit is Out of Self-Test Range. It is set when the KOER (Key On Engine Running) self-test Transmission Control Switch (TCS) is not cycled. This error code is a manufacturer-specific trouble code, meaning it does not apply to all vehicles makes.
What does it mean when your transmission solenoid is stuck?
If the trouble code is telling us that it’s stuck or an electrical problem, it is most likely a wiring or shift solenoid problem. A lot of the shift solenoid codes could be solved by trying to make a transmission fluid replacement or a carry out a transmission flush.
Where is the shift solenoid on an automatic transmission?
When it’s time to shift, the transmission control unit sends out power or ground to the required shift solenoid, and it causes the solenoid to open and let the transmission oil flow into the valve body, which then shifts to the next gear. The Transmission shift solenoids are located inside the valve body of your automatic transmission.
How much does it cost to replace a shift solenoid?
In the picture above, you see the shift solenoids located on the valve body. The shift solenoids are the tubes with yellow, green, and black colors. A single shift solenoid’s replacement cost is between 100$ to 350$ and a shift solenoid pack costs between 400$ to 700$, including transmission fluid, filter, parts, and labor work.
How many volts does a transmission solenoid have?
The shift solenoids are spring loaded with a coil inside. It depends on the car, but there are normally has 12 volts to the solenoid all the time and the transmission control unit sends ground to the solenoid when it’s time to open and releases the pressure.

Where are the solenoids located in an automatic transmission?
The Transmission shift solenoids are located inside the valve body of your automatic transmission. They are integrated into the valve body, and on some car models, you can see them without removing the valve body, while on others, you have to remove the valve body to reach them.
