DTC P0761: Shift Solenoid Valve C Stuck OFFNOTE: Record all freeze data and review General Troubleshooting Information before you troubleshoot.
1. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan comes on).
2. Check to be sure that the transmission is filled to the proper level, and check for fluid leaks.
3. Drain the ATF through a paint strainer. Look for contamination (small peaces of metal or friction material) in the strainer.
NOTE: If little or no contamination is found in the strainer, the ATF is OK. Discoloration, small chips or flakes, metal fuzz and a slightly "burnt" smell is considered normal.
