Shift E solenoid is a normally closed (N/C) solenoid that provides control main pressure to stroke the E shift valve. The transmission control module (TCM) determines the proper solenoid command logic to move the E shift valve to attain a particular range.
Since the valve state, stroked or unstroked, is critical to providing the correct transmission range, the shift valve has a pressure switch, located in the pressure switch manifold, to provide feedback to the TCM as to the position of the valve.
DTC P0773 is a type A DTC.
