U250E Pressure Control Solenoid, new and ready to install. Fits the U250E. Ships fast from the USA.
A four-cylinder Camry or Solara, a 2.4L Matrix, a Corolla XRS or a Pontiac Vibe 2.4 that shifts soft and slow under acceleration, flares between gears when warm, or sets P2714 is often losing line pressure control in its U250E five-speed. This listing is a new electronic pressure control solenoid for the U250E, the same SLT line pressure solenoid used across the U150E, U151E and U151F family. You get one solenoid; if more than one circuit is acting up, the seven-piece U250E solenoid kit replaces every solenoid on the valve body at once.
The U250E is the four-cylinder member of Toyota's Aisin-built U150 family, with gear ratios running from 3.943 in first to a 0.703 fifth for highway cruising on a 2.4L engine. Its valve body is fully electronic, and SLT is the linear solenoid that sets base line pressure from the primary regulator valve. The computer varies SLT's duty cycle with throttle opening and road speed, raising pressure when torque goes up so the clutches clamp hard enough, and lowering it at light throttle so shifts stay smooth. Toyota's service information points out an inverse logic: when SLT is commanded off, line pressure goes up. A solenoid that sticks or responds slowly leaves pressure too low under load, and a four-cylinder driver who is often at wide throttle merging onto the highway feels that as a slip first.
These units have no dipstick, so check the level hot at the overflow plug first; a low level alone causes flares. Read all codes and clear up any other transmission faults first, because Toyota lists a blocked valve body and worn clutches among the causes of P2714 as well as the solenoid itself. Next, put a gauge on the line pressure tap and compare idle and stall readings in Drive and Reverse; our guide to checking line pressure covers the setup. Pressure that does not rise when it should, while the solenoid tests in range, points at the valve body: Sonnax lists boost valve sleeve wear in U250E and U151E valve bodies causing low line rise in Drive and high line pressure in Reverse. GEARS magazine also recommends a transmission memory reset after any repair on these U150 and U250 units. Before blaming any shift complaint on a solenoid, read our explainer on shift flare versus slip.
The U250E was fitted to the 2005-2009 Toyota Camry four-cylinder, 2006-2009 Camry Solara four-cylinder, 2009-2014 Matrix 2.4L front-drive, 2009-2010 Corolla XRS and 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe 2.4L. Not every four-cylinder Camry of that era got it: many left the factory with the four-speed U241E, which uses different solenoids. The solenoid is also listed for the U150E, U151E and U151F. Confirm the transmission code on your build label, match your old solenoid's body, connector and bracket to the photo, or send us your year and VIN to check. More U250E parts are in our Aisin transmission parts collection.
Drain the fluid and drop the pan and strainer. SLT sits on the valve body and usually means lowering the valve body to get to it, so tag every connector before you unplug it. Fit the new solenoid with its O-ring lubed in fresh fluid, start the bracket bolt by hand and snug it evenly without twisting the solenoid in its bore. Refill with Toyota WS only; a genuine Toyota WS six-quart pack covers a pan drain plus the top-off. Set the level hot, then reset the transmission memory so shift pressures relearn. If the valve body itself is worn or the solenoid bore is scored, the U250E valve body is the more permanent repair.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
Only if it has the U250E five-speed. Many four-cylinder Camrys of that era used the four-speed U241E instead. Check the transmission code on the build label or send us your year and VIN.
P2714 is the SLT performance code and P2716 is the SLT electrical circuit code. P2714 can also come from a blocked valve body or worn clutches, so test line pressure and the solenoid before replacing it.
Yes. This listing covers the U150E, U151E, U151F and U250E, which share this SLT line pressure solenoid.
If only SLT tests bad, one solenoid is enough. If you have codes for several solenoids, high mileage or contaminated fluid, the seven-piece U250E solenoid kit is the better value.
Toyota WS (World Standard) ATF. Set the level hot at the overflow plug, since these transmissions have no dipstick.
Yes. Reset the transmission adaptive memory with a scan tool so the computer relearns shift pressures. Shifts may feel firm for a few drives.
