It&rsquo;s a gray area, but sometimes this kind of failure is referred to as a &ldquo;performance&rdquo; fault. This kind of fault can mean that the change didn&rsquo;t happen or that it didn&rsquo;t happen within the expected time window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using a feedback sensor to determine compliance is known as a &ldquo;rationality check&rdquo; because the command is given and another input is used to verify that the requested change took place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the electrical circuit fails, it will store a different code and the unpowered solenoid will drive the line pressure so that it defaults to maximum pressure (hard shifts) to protect the clutches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Note:<\/em><\/strong><em> The definition of code P0745 can differ according to the vehicle manufacturer.
