P2714: Pressure Control Solenoid 'D' Performance/Stuck Off
Got a P2714 code throwing shade at your dash? That’s your transmission whining about Pressure Control Solenoid 'D' being a slacker—either stuck off or not pulling its weight. At iCarsoft US, we’ve got your fix with the iCarsoft CR MAX and CR Eagle—top-dog OBD2 scanners with Bluetooth and bidirectional grit. Over 1.78 million gearheads and pros in 250+ countries trust ‘em to get trannies back in the game.
1. What’s P2714 Hollering About?
The P2714 code lights up when your Transmission Control Module (TCM) or ECM catches Solenoid 'D'—one of the little hydraulic wizards in your auto tranny—either stuck off or acting wonky. These solenoids boss around fluid pressure to shift gears smooth. When 'D' flakes out, your shifts get sloppy, and your ride’s not happy.

2. What’s Jamming It Up?
- Busted Solenoid: 'D’s fried—could be wear or a dud from the jump.
- Gunked-Up Fluid: Dirty tranny juice clogging the works.
- Wiring Blues: Shorted, frayed, or rusty wires cutting the juice.
- TCM Hiccups: Your tranny’s brain misfiring on commands.
- Low Fluid Vibes: Leaks or skimpy levels throwing off pressure.
3. How’s It Driving?
P2714 can hit you with a check engine light, harsh shifts that jolt you like a bad rodeo, slipping gears, sluggish pickup, or even limp mode where your rig’s stuck in low gear. Worst case? It won’t shift at all—talk about a buzzkill.
4. Who’s Taking the Hit?
P2714 loves automatic trannies, especially in heavy haulers or high-mileage rigs. Here’s the usual suspects:
- Ford: F-150, Explorer (2015-2023) – solenoid wear gets forum buzz.
- Chevy: Silverado, Equinox (2016-2023) – dirty fluid’s a killer.
- Toyota: Camry, Tacoma (2014-2022) – wiring woes in hot climates.
- Dodge: Ram 1500, Durango (2017-2023) – TCM glitches pop up.
- Honda: Accord, CR-V (2015-2023) – fluid neglect bites back.
Online wrenchers blame skimpy maintenance, towing hard, or just racking up too many clicks.

5. How Deep’s the Hole?
P2714’s a hefty one. Sloppy shifts or limp mode can strand you, and ignoring it might cook your tranny—big bucks territory. Get after it quick before you’re towing it home.
6. Can I Still Roll?
You might limp along with P2714 if shifts aren’t too brutal, but don’t chance it—slipping or stalling’s a tow truck call waiting to happen. Use a Bluetooth OBD2 scanner like CR MAX or CR Eagle to watch it and dive in fast.
7. How Do I Pin This Down?
Break out the iCarsoft CR MAX or CR Eagle—these OBD2 bruisers make it a snap:
- Scan for P2714 and any tag-alongs (like P0750 for shift solenoid woes).
- Check live data—watch solenoid action and tranny pressure.
- Test the solenoid—use a multimeter on resistance and voltage.
- Scope the fluid—dark or gritty? Time for a flush.
- Use bidirectional juice to fire Solenoid 'D' and see if it’s awake.

8. Don’t Get Burned
- Swapping Too Soon: Check fluid and wiring before tossing a solenoid.
- Skipping the Flush: Old juice can fake out a good part.
- Blowing Off the TCM: A glitchy brain can throw the whole show.
9. How Do I Fix This Beast?
Once you’ve got the scoop, here’s the play:
- Swap Solenoid 'D' if it’s toast (OEM’s your safest bet).
- Flush and fill—fresh tranny fluid can work wonders.
- Patch wiring—fix shorts or rust in the harness.
- Reflash the TCM/ECM if it’s acting up—software’s a cheap win.
- Top off fluid—plug leaks and get levels right.
10. How Rough’s the Gig?
P2714’s a solid challenge. Fluid checks and wiring’s a breeze, but solenoid swaps or TCM digs need some grit. The iCarsoft CR MAX or CR Eagle cuts the fat with live data and controls.
11. What’s the Bill?
Fix | Cost (Parts + Labor, USD) |
---|---|
Solenoid Replacement | $150 - $400 |
Transmission Fluid Flush | $100 - $250 |
Wiring Repair | $75 - $200 |
TCM/ECM Update | $100 - $300 |
Fluid Leak Fix | $50 - $200 |
Red Flag: A cooked tranny from neglect could run you $2,000+.
12. How Do I Kick P2714?
Post-fix, blast the code with CR MAX or CR Eagle—follow the book. Battery yank’s a quick dodge, but use an OBD2 scanner with live data to seal the deal.
13. Keep It Shiftin’ Smooth
- Fluid Love: Flush tranny juice on schedule—no skimping.
