I just bought this yesterday. A 2008 Kia Sedona. On the test drive I drove it hard for 60 miles trying to force deleted codes to pop up (common practice for dealerships to delete codes for the inspection). I didn’t get any codes and after dickering on the price I drove it home for $3500.
On the drive home I got a check engine light. I stopped at autozone because I needed oil anyways and scanned the codes.
P0741 TCCS circuit performance or stuck off (previously deleted)
P0420 Catalyst Efficiency below threshold bank 1
P04320 Catalyst Efficiency below threshold bank 2
P0741 TCCS circuit performance or stuck off.
I’m assuming the cat codes are because of the TCCS failure because the car runs like a top. The transmission is shifting fine.... but why does Kia have to make this TCC solenoid so freaking hard to find. I can’t find a replacement anywhere. The only information I can find says that it’s under the valve body and the failure is likely due to a bad connection or a dirty solenoid. Ok, fine... but if I have to remove the valve body to get to it then I want to replace or atleast service the solenoid. I can not find this part number or anybody that sells it or even instructions on how to remove/replace/ service this part.
I feel like tanking my hair out!!!! And that’s a lot of hair....
I will place photos here after I have had time to resize them on my laptop
