Code Tech Notes

When a transmission solenoid has malfunctioned, in most cases the problem is not the electrical part of the solenoid; the problem is foreign material obstructing the mechanical function of the solenoid or the flow of the fluid through the transmission valve body. If the transmission fluid is dirty, it's recommended to change the transmission fluid and if possible, remove the transmission pan for further diagnosis. Excessive debris or metal particles on the transmission pan could be an indication that there is a mechanical transmission failure, and that the transmission will need to be rebuilt or replaced.

Code P0747 Chevrolet Description

The solenoid actuator controls fluid pressure by moving the clutch 1-2-3-4-5-6 regulator valve that controls the fluid pressure to the 1-2-3-4-5-6 clutch. The Solenoid Valve is an electronic pressure actuator that controls transmission line pressure based on current flow through its coil windings. As current flow is increased, the magnetic field produced by the coil moves the solenoid’s plunger further away from the exhaust port. Opening the exhaust port decreases the output fluid pressure regulated by the solenoid valve, which ultimately decreases line pressure.
