P0810 Clutch Position Control Error

P0810 reports a control error of an electronically or hydraulically operated clutch: commanded and actual position differ too much or for too long. It is documented on Stellantis plug-in hybrids – Jeep Wrangler 4xe and Grand Cherokee 4xe with the 8P75PH transmission – where it concerns the K0 disconnect clutch between engine and electric motor. According to the 2024 and 2025 bulletins the clutch adaptation ran at standstill or in electric mode, drive was lost until the next key cycle and the MIL came on; the cause was too tight setting parameters, fixed with new transmission software, partly together with P2885. On automated or dual-clutch gearboxes the same idea applies when the clutch actuator misses its target position.

Likely causes

Control unit software with too tight parameters
Clutch actuator or hydraulics (pressure, valve) faulty
Clutch position sensor inaccurate
Wrong or aged fluid, worn clutch

Symptoms

  • Check engine lamp on
  • Transmission warning message
  • Loss of drive until the next key cycle
