P075E
Shift Solenoid G Intermittent
Shift solenoid G shows intermittent electrical or hydraulic dropouts — vibration on the harness, loose connector, contaminated ATF that occasionally jams the spool, or thermal sensitivity. Difficult to catch with a static check; usually documented by snapshot/freeze-frame data when the fault occurs.
