Shift solenoid H exists only on transmissions with eight or more solenoids. Ford's 10R80 ends at F, GM's 9- and 10-speeds report clutch pressure valve codes; the only documented user of the H block is the 2017–18 Genesis G80/G90 with shift-by-wire, where it concerns the on/off solenoid of the park lock rather than a shift valve. Hyundai's bulletins name P076A both 'SBW park system fault' and 'on/off solenoid C (park – SBW)'. The remedy is replacing valve and electronic module or the park position switch and actuator, then the transmission module if the code returns. No other manufacturer uses P076A.
Medium severity. Can I keep driving?Drive as little as possible and gently. If the transmission slips or stays in one gear, go slowly to a repair shop or call for a tow truck.
Symptoms
- Check engine light
- Park lock or range selection fault, shift-by-wire warning
- Limp mode
Most likely causes
- Park lock on/off solenoid or electronic module faulty
- Park position switch or actuator (shift-by-wire)
- Connector or wiring
- Transmission module
What to check, in order
Start with the simplest. You can tick off each step.
Good to know
- Repair difficulty: medium
- It can trigger limp mode.
- It affects emissions.
What each character of P076A means
- P: Powertrain: engine and transmission
- 0: Generic code: same on every make
- 7: Transmission
- 6A: Specific fault in that system
