OD relay new, switch good, switch clicks relay and lights up arrow perfectly.

OD will work briefly when first reaching enough speed in the morning on my trip to work (20 miles), but will kick out soon after, light not on. Can click light on and off, no effect. After some time at RPM in 3rd, it will wake up and fall into OD and be fine for the rest of the day (or longer). Some combo of road and temp makes it only fail on my way to work in the morning (or, someone has cursed me), I put 200 miles on the car this weekend alone and it was fine.

Fluid has few miles on it, very few, was flushed when the trans was out for seals awhile back. I'm down to swapping in another OD solenoid, any other ideas? There isn't much to this system really.
