    I think the images were just too big, I made them smaller and now they upload just fine on here.

    Here's an article that is a bit helpful about this issue and what the inductive spikes are supposed to look like https://www.transmissiondigest.com/august-2018-issue/ I will repeat one last time and you diced what you want to do, but this article makes it sound clear cut when in real life it is not. I am pretty darn good with a scope, I have spent countless hours trying to do what you are trying to do, and I was never able to prove for sure if it was the usual bad computer or an actual solenoid circuit issue unless of course those easy one where it is not intermittent.

    Keep in mind that when it goes to limp home mode after setting the codes and you see the computer turning off the power to the transmission, you then have to go back in time in your scope recording to try and see if it did what the conditions below say it needs to do to set the code or not.

    P0765-UD SOLENOID CIRCUIT
    For a complete wiring diagram, refer to appropriate SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS article .

    THEORY OF OPERATION
    Six solenoids are used to control the friction elements (clutches). The continuity of the solenoid circuits is periodically tested. Each solenoid is turned on or off depending on its current state. An inductive spike should be detected by the PCM during this test. If no spike is detected, the circuit is tested again to verify the failure. In addition to the periodic testing, the solenoid circuits are tested if a gear ratio or pressure switch error occurs. In this case, one failure will result in the appropriate DTC being set. The MIL will illuminate and the transmission goes into neutral, if the DTC is set above 35 km/h (22 mph), Limp-in mode when vehicle speed is below 35 km/h (22 mph).

    WHEN MONITORED
    Initially at ignition on, then every 10 seconds thereafter. The solenoids will also be tested immediately after a gear ratio error or pressure switch error is detected.

    SET CONDITION
    Three consecutive solenoid continuity test failures, or one failure if test is run in response to a gear ratio or pressure switch error.

    Hey! Did you manage to fix the problem? The P0765 has been driving me crazy with my Dodge Avenger 2.4l 2008.
    Tried two solenoid packs, and I don't believe the same UD Solenoid is faulty in both units.
    The continuity is good, 0.5 ohms from the PCM connector to the solenoid connector.
    I would be so thankful for any help. I'm losing my mind.

    Man, troubleshooting this one was a pain. I replaced the solenoid pack, ECU, wiring harness, and TIPM. None of those things worked.

    Last weekend I replaced the valve body with a rebuilt one from eBay and used OEM transmission fluid. Transmission works great now. My daughter has been driving it all week with no trouble codes.

    It is a 62TE transmission. Not sure what fluid was in there before I changed to OEM. I purchased from O'Reilly autoparts. Most likely it was Valvoline synthetic.
