It's not the relay. I replaced the relay 6 months ago, and the O/D was fine. All of a suddem, the car will not shift into the O/D gear at highway speed. I tried clicking the O/D switch, and although the shift-up light comes goes on and off every time I click the button on the shifter, there is no response by the tranny. Then the other day, while driving around 60MPH it mysteriously shifted into the O/D gear, and engine revs went down from 3100 - 2500 (normal O/D range). The kickdown cable seems okay, but hard to judge.
