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. P076E is an intermittent fault of solenoid H. No manufacturer document available to us uses it; manufacturers usually count such dropouts within their circuit codes. A loose contact at the transmission connector is the most likely cause.

Likely causes

Loose contact or corrosion at the transmission connector
Chafed harness, dependent on temperature or vibration
Coil with heat-dependent winding fault

Symptoms

  • Limp mode or jolt at times, then normal again
  • Warning lamp comes and goes
