P0944 OBD-II: Hydraulic Pressure Unit Loss of Pressure
P0944 Severity
Will P0944 go away on its own?
Once the vehicle's onboard system no longer detects the issue, most codes will disappear on their own. If your vehicle still has this code, however, it should be properly diagnosed to avoid a more serious problem.
For a proper diagnosis, RepairPal Certified shops have the equipment, tools, and expertise.
Moderate severity codes might not threaten the vehicle's safety or functionality immediately, but you should still get it diagnosed within a reasonable time frame to keep your car running well.
What causes OBD-II fault code P0944?
The transmission uses hydraulic pressure to shift gears. The Transmission uses its own oil pump to build and maintain pressure inside the transmission. If there is a loss of pressure, code P0944 is set.
