P282EPressure Control Solenoid K Control Circuit Range/Performance

P282E indicates that the transmission control module (TCM) has detected an abnormal range or performance issue in the control circuit for pressure control solenoid K, which is one of several solenoids that regulate hydraulic pressure inside the automatic transmission. The TCM monitors the solenoid's electrical current and the resulting hydraulic response, and it sets this code when the circuit's behavior falls outside the expected range or fails to perform as commanded.
