Shift solenoid H exists only on transmissions with eight or more solenoids. Ford's 10R80 ends at F, GM's 9- and 10-speeds report clutch pressure valve codes; the only documented user of the H block is the 2017–18 Genesis G80/G90 with shift-by-wire, where it concerns the on/off solenoid of the park lock rather than a shift valve. P076C means solenoid H is commanded off but stays effective, like P0762 for solenoid C. No manufacturer document available to us uses this code; Hyundai uses only P076A and P076D. The description follows the scheme for the other solenoids.

Likely causes

Shift spool or proportional valve sticking in the applied position
Clutch not releasing (stuck or burnt)
Solenoid stuck open or leaking
Control wire shorted to ground (permanently powered)

Symptoms

  • Tie-up or jolt on shifts
  • Delayed shifts, engine revs high
  • Limp mode
  • Check engine light
