This summary uses the existing diagnostic information shown in full below.
This code means that a part in the car's transmission, like a switch, isn't getting enough power to work properly. It's like a toy that needs batteries, but the batteries are running low.
The P2814 code is triggered when the transmission control module (TCM) detects a low electrical signal in the pressure control solenoid G circuit.
The pressure control solenoid is responsible for regulating the hydraulic pressure in the transmission. When the TCM detects that the voltage in the control circuit for solenoid G is below the expected range, it sets the P2814 code. This could be due to an electrical issue such as a short circuit, open circuit, or a faulty solenoid.
• Transmission slipping
• Harsh or delayed shifting
• Check Engine Light illuminated
• Poor fuel economy
• Faulty pressure control solenoid G
• Open or shorted wiring in the solenoid circuit
• Poor electrical connection in the solenoid circuit
• Faulty transmission control module (TCM)
TCM: Transmission Control Module
OBD-II: On-Board Diagnostics, Second Generation
• Use an OBD-II scanner to confirm the code.
• Inspect the wiring and connectors for damage or corrosion.
• Test the pressure control solenoid G for proper operation.
• Check the TCM for any faults.
• Replace or repair the faulty pressure control solenoid G.
• Repair or replace damaged wiring or connectors.
• Reprogram or replace the TCM if necessary.
• OBD-II scanner
• Multimeter
• Wiring diagram

Moderate
• Toyota Camry
• Honda Accord
• Ford Fusion
• Regular transmission fluid changes
• Routine inspection of transmission wiring
• Avoid harsh driving conditions
Transmission Issue
• Avoid driving the vehicle until repaired to prevent further damage.
• Consult a professional mechanic for an accurate diagnosis.
Check with the vehicle manufacturer for transmission warranty coverage.
This code has been known to appear in vehicles with high mileage or poor maintenance history.
Moderate – Should be addressed soon to avoid transmission damage.
Driving with a faulty transmission can be dangerous. Address the issue promptly to ensure vehicle safety.
• Vehicle at operating temperature
• Transmission in drive
The pressure control solenoid is located inside the transmission, usually accessible by removing the transmission pan.
Q: Can I drive with a P2814 code?
A: It's not recommended to drive with this code as it can lead to further transmission damage.
Q: How do I clear the P2814 code?
A: The code can be cleared with an OBD-II scanner after the issue is fixed, but it will return if the problem persists.
