The P0765 code is triggered when the transmission control module (TCM) detects a malfunction with the &ldquo;D&rdquo; shift solenoid circuit. The transmission uses <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/automatic-transmission-solenoid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"shift solenoids\">shift solenoids<\/a> to control hydraulic fluid pressure inside the transmission. The flow of hydraulic pressure dictates when the transmission will shift gears. These shift solenoids are grouped into shift solenoid circuits and are named A, B, C, and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"706\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/old-automatic-transmission-solenoid-1024x706.jpg\" alt=\"image of an old automatic transmission valve body\" class=\"wp-image-81018\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/old-automatic-transmission-solenoid-1024x706.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/old-automatic-transmission-solenoid-300x207.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/old-automatic-transmission-solenoid-768x529.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/old-automatic-transmission-solenoid-150x103.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/old-automatic-transmission-solenoid.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The P0765 code is triggered when the TCM detects a malfunction with the &ldquo;D&rdquo; shift solenoid circuit.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Note: <\/em><\/strong><em>The definition of the P0765 code can be different depending on the vehicle manufacturer.
