Over drive problems... 700 1989

Hello everyone, i'm new here, and too Volvo's. I have a 89 Volvo 740 GL wagon, with a B230F, with a AW70 tranny I think. Here is my problem: Started with my upshift arrow light coming on, and no OD. Started with a new volvo OD relay, which worked for a day. Well the light came back on, so I bought a new OD switch, which turned the light on and off. I can get my over drive to work by wiggling the OD relay then it will kick into OD. The light stays on but still have OD. If I don't wiggle the OD relay I will not have over drive. This problem is looking to be a wiring issue, I looked under the car, at the Solinode no bare wires, so that looks ok. I'm stumped on this, and would love have OD again with out wiggling the OD relay...lol
Mike
