P0767 Code: Meaning, Symptoms, Causes & Fix

Overview

P0767 is triggered when monitoring logic identifies an issue with Shift Solenoid D Stuck On affecting transmission and shift management.

Symptoms

harsh or delayed shifting
reduced acceleration
gear hunting

Common causes

Failed internal motor/solenoid affecting shift solenoid d stuck on
Debris/carbon buildup restricting movement
Connector pin damage/corrosion or harness stress near related components

How to diagnose P0767

Confirm P0767 and capture freeze-frame data with a professional scan tool.
Inspect wiring, connectors, and grounds related to shift solenoid d stuck on for obvious defects.
Check actuator movement/mechanical travel and command response using scan tool bi-directional tests.
Check for related DTCs to identify the root-cause chain before replacing parts.
After repair, clear codes and confirm readiness monitors complete without recurrence.

Severity of code P0767

Low: This code is low to moderate severity in most cases, but diagnosis is still recommended to avoid recurring warnings.

Can you drive with P0767?

The vehicle is often drivable with P0767, but plan a repair window to prevent repeat faults.

If the warning lamp is flashing or drivability/safety is affected, avoid driving and diagnose immediately.

How to fix it (step-by-step)

Repair obvious wiring/connector faults first to prevent repeat parts replacement.
Address the root fault mode (stuck) in the shift solenoid d stuck on circuit/system.
Apply the required relearn/adaptation procedure if specified by service information.
Road-test and verify P0767 remains cleared under the conditions that originally set the code.

Fix options

Replace stuck component and retest.
Repair actuator drive circuit.
Clear DTCs and verify with live data and completed drive cycle.

Typical repair cost

$180-$650

Common mistakes when diagnosing P0767

Replacing parts without verifying voltage, ground, and signal integrity first.
Ignoring related stored/pending codes that indicate upstream faults.
Skipping post-repair verification drive cycle and readiness checks.

P0767 in common vehicles

P0767 appears across makes such as Ford, Toyota, Honda, Chevrolet. Failure patterns differ by platform: wiring routes, software calibration, and component supplier revisions can change root cause.

Frequently asked questions

What causes P0767?

P0767 is commonly set by stuck faults affecting shift solenoid d stuck on.

How much does it cost to fix P0767?

For P0767, repair costs are typically $180-$650 depending on exact root cause, labor rates, and part quality.

Can I clear P0767 without repair?

You can clear P0767 temporarily, but the code usually returns until the underlying fault is corrected.
