Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Buick Regal, 2002 Buick Century, 2001 Buick Regal, and 2001 Buick Century. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The Pressure Control (PC) solenoid valve is located in the valve body. The PC solenoid valve controls line pressure based on current flow through its windings. The PCM determines desired line pressure based on throttle position and other inputs. The PCM then varies the duty cycle on the high side of the PC solenoid valve to control current flow to the solenoid. Current is controlled from about 0.02 amp for maximum line pressure to 1.1 amps for minimum line pressure. The PCM monitors the actual current to the solenoid.

If the PCM detects a commanded current draw that differs from the actual current draw by more than a calibrated value, then DTC P0748 sets. DTC P0748 is a type "C" DTC.
