Where do I find the overdrive relay for my wagon. I have an 88 , 740 gle with an automatic tranny and there are days that the overdrive does not kick in ( no matter how many times I curse or push the button)and on the highway I end up rev the engine up to 4000rpm.
Also is there a way of testing these ?
Thanks in advance...

    It's under the radio in the relay/fuse tray. See the 700/900 FAQ via the 'features' pull down menu. Take it out, open it up and resolder it. Then check the wiring under the car.

    Resolder the fuel pump relay as well.
