    Symptom:
    P1776-SOLENOID SWITCH LATCHED IN L-R POSITION

    When Monitored and Set Condition:
    P1776-SOLENOID SWITCH LATCHED IN L-R POSITION

    When Monitored: Continuously when doing a partial or full EMCC (PEMCC OR FEMCC).

    Set Condition: If the transmission senses the L-R pressure switch closing while performing PEMCC or FEMCC. The code will be set after two unsuccessful attempts to perform PEMCC or FEMCC.

    POSSIBLE CAUSES
    CHECKING SYMPTOMS AND POSSIBLE CAUSES
    LOW BATTERY VOLTAGE CAUSING SYMPTOM
    TRANSMISSION PAN HAS EXCESS DEBRIS
    DEBRIS IN PAN CAUSED VALVE BODY DAMAGE
    INTERMITTENT CODE P1776

    remember, the code number never identifies a bad part, just a failed system. it sounds like you will need the trans rebuilt.

    not sure but the solenoid is not the issue. it is most likely internal as debris from whatever failed has contaminated the valve body.
