Hyundai & Kia i10, i20, i30 KEFICO ECU TCM P0748 Fault Code – Common Symptoms and Repair Solutions

If you’re driving a Hyundai i10, i20, or i30, or a Kia vehicle with a KEFICO ECU or Transmission Control Module (TCM), you might encounter the P0748 fault code. This code typically indicates an issue with the Transmission Fluid Pressure Solenoid Valve Circuit. If not addressed, it can lead to significant transmission problems, affecting the vehicle’s overall performance.

At The Vehicle Check, we specialize in diagnosing and repairing P0748 faults in Hyundai and Kia vehicles. Here’s what you need to know about this issue and how we can help restore your vehicle’s performance.


What Is the P0748 Fault Code?

The P0748 code indicates a problem with the Transmission Fluid Pressure Solenoid. The solenoid is responsible for regulating the fluid pressure within the transmission. When it malfunctions, it can lead to poor shifting performance, slipping gears, and transmission overheating.

Common Symptoms of P0748 in Kia & Hyundai Vehicles

  • Rough or delayed shifting: You may notice hesitation or jerking when shifting gears, particularly when changing from Park to Drive or Reverse.

  • Check Engine Light (CEL): The P0748 fault will trigger the Check Engine Light to appear on your dashboard.

  • Overheating Transmission: In some cases, the transmission can overheat due to inadequate fluid pressure.

  • Reduced Vehicle Performance: You may experience poor acceleration or slipping while driving, as the transmission isn’t receiving the proper fluid pressure.

If you’re experiencing these symptoms, it's crucial to address the P0748 fault code immediately to avoid further damage to your vehicle’s transmission.


What Causes the P0748 Fault Code?

The most common causes for the P0748 code include:

  • Faulty Transmission Fluid Pressure Solenoid: The solenoid may wear out over time, causing improper fluid regulation.

  • Wiring Issues: Damaged or frayed wiring can affect the electrical signal to the solenoid.

  • Low Transmission Fluid: Insufficient fluid levels can lead to improper pressure within the transmission, triggering the P0748 code.

  • Clogged or Dirty Transmission Fluid: Contaminants or debris in the fluid can cause blockages in the solenoid, affecting its functionality.
