P0795 Pressure Control Solenoid C
General fault on pressure control solenoid C — third pressure regulator in transmissions with multiple independently regulated hydraulic circuits (line pressure, clutch C, torque converter clutch). The TCM detects an electrical or hydraulic anomaly that has not yet been pinned to a specific failure mode.
Is it safe to drive with P0795?
Usually safe for short trips, but don’t ignore it: the underlying fault can get more expensive over time.
Common causes
- Most likelySolenoid electrical or hydraulic fault
