What is code P0751 mean?
What the P0751 code means. Automatic transmissions use solenoids to move fluid through interior channels and create the pressure needed to change gears. The P0751 code means that there has been a problem with shift solenoid A, as opposed to shift solenoid B, which would be indicated with a P0755 code.
Can transmission solenoids be cleaned?
It wouldn’t hurt to clean the solenoids, might as well go ahead and do it. but yea the clunk is probably the tranny mounts or engine mounts. the process of cleaning them is pretty much straight forward. you cant really mess them up unless you beat on them to much when you are trying to unstick them, if they are stuck.

When do you get a p0751 code on your ECM?
The P0751 code is detected when the gear required by the ECM does not match the actual gear when vehicle is driven. Transmission will not shift gears.
What is the diagnostic code for Shift Solenoid?
Diagnostic is a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) for “Trouble Code (DTC) P0751 Shift Solenoid A Performance or Stuck Off/1-2 Shift Solenoid Valve Performance”. This can happen for multiple reasons and a mechanic needs to diagnose the specific cause for this code to be triggered in your situation.
What causes a transmission solenoid to be stuck off?
When the a transmission solenoid is stuck off, in most cases the problem is not the electrical part of the solenoid; the problem is foreign material obstructing the mechanical function of the solenoid or the flow of the fluid through the transmission valve body.
