Hello,

The solenoid is located inside the transmission valve body.
Keep mind that the code P076a typically gets triggered due to an issue within the circuit. It may or may not be a faulty solenoid, but rather wiring issue.

I have attached the trouble shooting steps for the P076a below. Also included the solenoid and valve body replacement procedure for your reference.

Please let me know of any questions.
Thank you.

Good morning,

I attached the flow chart for you to follow. From all the indicators, this looks like an electrical issue.

You need to test all the fuses to be sure they are good. Check for power on both sides with the key in the on position.

You will need to follow the flow chart steps to determine the failure.

It is a process. Follow each step one by one and write down the results. Then get back to me with your results so I can help you more.

Maybe you can get someone to help you who is familiar with these checks.

Check the fuse first that is listed.
