Trim A solenoid is used to control oncoming, off-going, and holding pressure in any one of five clutches. This solenoid is referred to as a pressure proportional to current (PPC) solenoid since the output hydraulic pressure supplied by this solenoid is proportional to the controlled current command.

The transmission control module (TCM) uses information from the turbine and output speed sensors to detect if a clutch is slipping. The clutch being controlled by the A solenoid will vary depending on the shift that was being completed.

DTC P0746 is a type A DTC.
