P0742

TCC Circuit Stuck On

high severityDo not drive$300-$1,500

TCC stays engaged — can stall when stopping.

Common symptoms

  • Stall at stops
  • Shudder

Likely causes

  • Stuck solenoid
  • Valve body

Where to start

  1. Try the cheapest cause first. Start by checking: stuck solenoid.
  2. Cost & scope. $300-$1,500
  3. If the code returns after the fix: escalate to a shop or scanner with live-data and freeze-frame. A code that re-sets means the underlying fault is still there. Don't keep driving with this one active — risk of damage.
