About this product

This is a new line pressure control solenoid for the Ford 10R80, listed for 2019-2024. Ford's service information calls it the LPC solenoid; parts catalogs and older Fords call the same job EPC. It is the cylindrical variable force solenoid with the blue connector shown in the photo. Owners of a 2019-2024 F-150, Ranger, Expedition, Navigator, Mustang or Transit usually land here after a hard clunk into Drive or Reverse, firm shifts all the way up the range, or a P0960-series pressure control code.

What the LPC solenoid does in a 10R80

All ten forward gears are clutch-to-clutch shifts, and every clutch works from one base pressure that the main regulator valve sets. The LPC solenoid feeds the signal that positions that regulator. GEARS Magazine describes it as normally high and inversely proportional: at about 50 mA the transmission gets full line pressure, and at about 850 mA it gets very little. The module keeps a small idle current on the circuit so it can watch it. Transmission Digest lists it as one of eight solenoids on the main control: six CIDAS shift solenoids, the normally high LPC and the normally low TCC. Because the default state is high pressure, an open circuit or a sticking solenoid usually shows up as harsh engagements rather than slipping.

Symptoms of a failing pressure control solenoid

How to confirm it on 2019-2024 trucks

This year range has two well-documented harsh-shift causes that are not the LPC solenoid, so check them first. Ford TSB 23-2123 covers 2017-2020 F-150, 2018-2021 Expedition, Navigator and Mustang, and 2019-2023 Ranger with harsh engagement, harsh shift or delayed shift. It lists shift solenoid and ratio codes such as P0751, P0731 to P0736 and P2700 to P2708, blames adaptive calibration failing to keep up with hardware break-in, and starts with a reprogram and adaptive drive cycle. Ford TSB 24-2254 covers 2020-2022 Explorer, 2021-2022 F-150 and Mustang, 2022 Expedition and Navigator, and 2020-2023 Transit built on or before August 15, 2022, where the same code list comes from a CDF clutch cylinder sleeve that moves and leaks. If your truck has those codes and no P096x code, a solenoid is probably not your fix.

For a true pressure complaint, watch the desired line pressure PID against the solenoid current. If current follows the command and pressure does not, look at the regulator valve and damper bores. If current never changes, the solenoid or its circuit is the problem. Transmission Digest's scope testing article measured roughly 72-75 psi at idle where published charts show about 90 psi, a reminder to judge a gauge reading against the commanded value rather than a single number. Our 10R80 pressure control solenoid symptoms guide walks through the full test, and the 10R80 F-150 shift problems guide covers the TSB cases.

Fitment

Listed for 10R80 transmissions from 2019 through 2024. The 10R80 went into the F-150 and Transit from 2017, the Expedition, Navigator and Mustang from 2018 and the Ranger from 2019; the Bronco uses the lighter 10R60, which is a different unit. Match the shape, the connector and any number on your old solenoid before ordering, or send us your year and VIN. Other versions are in our 10R80 parts collection.

Install notes

The solenoid lives on the main control inside the pan, so plan a full fluid and filter service with the 10R80 filter and gasket kit and fresh Mercon ULV. Ford's main control service in TSB 23-2123 calls for new solenoid retaining clips, so replace yours rather than reusing bent ones. Lubricate the O-rings with clean fluid, seat the solenoid squarely and set the level hot. Transmission Digest warns that the solenoid body strategy stored in the module has to match the tag on the case, so verify it with a scan tool and then run the adaptive relearn. If more than one solenoid is suspect, the 10R80 solenoid kit replaces the set in one job.

10R80 Pressure Control Solenoid 2019-2024: common questions

Is the LPC solenoid the same as an EPC solenoid?

It does the same job. On the 10R80 Ford calls it the line pressure control (LPC) solenoid, while many catalogs still call it the EPC or pressure control solenoid.

Which trucks does this 2019-2024 version fit?

It is listed for 2019-2024 10R80 units, used in the F-150, Ranger, Expedition, Navigator, Mustang and Transit. It does not fit the Bronco's 10R60. Send us your VIN if you want us to confirm.

Will a new LPC solenoid fix my harsh shifts?

Only if the solenoid or its circuit is at fault, usually with a P0960 to P0963 code. Harsh shifts with shift solenoid or ratio codes on these years are often covered by Ford TSB 23-2123 or 24-2254 instead.

What fluid does the 10R80 use?

Mercon ULV. Do not substitute Mercon LV or a universal fluid.

Do I need to relearn after replacing it?

Yes. Confirm the solenoid body strategy in the module matches the case tag with a scan tool, then run the adaptive relearn so shift pressure is recalibrated.
