DTC codes / P27xx · Transmission / P2716
P2716 indicates that the transmission control module has detected an electrical fault in the circuit for pressure control solenoid 'D', which is one of the shift solenoids inside the automatic transmission valve body. The computer monitors the solenoid's electrical current and voltage and sets this code when the readings fall outside the expected range, pointing to an open, short, or excessive resistance in the solenoid or its wiring.
Guidance is general and written for all OBD-II vehicles. Exact tests and values vary by model, so confirm the fault before replacing parts.
