P2797 — Auxiliary transmission fluid pump A — performance / stuck off
Reference detail for fault code P2797 on the DQ200 DSG transmission family.
What P2797 indicates
The DQ200 transmission control unit stores P2797 when it detects the following condition: Auxiliary transmission fluid pump A — performance / stuck off. The fault concerns the hydraulic supply of the mechatronic unit. The control unit compares the required system pressure with the measured pressure and stores the code when the pressure is too low, too high, builds up too slowly, or the pump runs outside its normal operating time. A stored code does not by itself prove that a part has failed. Before replacing anything, check the live data, wiring, connectors, power supply and fluid condition, and confirm the fault on the vehicle.
Symptoms
- Delayed gear engagement or loss of drive
- Pump running unusually often or for a long time
- Emergency mode or no drive in gear
- Transmission warning light
Possible causes
- Internal hydraulic leakage (valve body, seals, accumulator)
- Faulty hydraulic pump or pump motor
- Low or contaminated transmission fluid
- Faulty pressure sensor or pressure control valve
