DTC P0796: CVT Start Clutch Pressure Control Valve Stuck OFF: General Description

The CVT clutch pressure control solenoid valve controls and optimizes clutch pressure (hydraulic pressure) for various driving conditions. If the vehicle will not move when opening the throttle to accelerate, and the engine speed and the start clutch target oil pressure increase for a specified time, the powertrain control module (PCM) detects a malfunction and stores a DTC.
