P0967 — Pressure Control Solenoid B Control Circuit High

System: Powertrain  |  Type: Generic (OBD-II Standard)  |  Make: Generic

About P0967

P0967 is a generic (obd-ii standard) powertrain diagnostic trouble code. It belongs to the P-prefix family of codes, which covers engine, transmission, emissions, or fuel-system faults.

When P0967 is stored, the module has detected a signal or supply voltage higher than the expected operating range.

Scanning & clearing: A generic OBD-II scan tool will usually read and clear powertrain (P) codes. For live data, freeze-frame capture, and bi-directional tests you may need a more capable scan tool that supports the vehicle's ECM protocol.

Because P0967 is a generic OBD-II code, its base definition is shared across manufacturers. The specific diagnostic steps, reference values, and repair procedures can vary by vehicle, and the TaT Diagnostic Assistant includes verified procedures submitted by working technicians.

Code Information

The P0967 fault code is triggered when the control module detects a high voltage condition in the control circuit of Pressure Control Solenoid B. This solenoid is a critical component in automatic transmissions, responsible for modulating hydraulic pressure for gear shifting and managing the torque converter clutch operations. A high voltage condition in this circuit usually indicates an electrical fault, such as a short to power or an internal issue within the solenoid. High voltage can lead to over-activation or malfunctioning of Pressure Control Solenoid B, which can cause transmission prob...
