P2754
Transmission Fluid Cooler Control Circuit Low
Voltage on the transmission fluid cooler control line is below the expected window. Wiring faults of this kind typically come from chafing, water ingress at connector seals, or pin push-back — a wiggle test on the harness while the code is active often confirms the location.
