Re: O/D SWITCH ISN'T WORKING 900 1991

posted by  someone claiming to be Steve Ringlee on  Mon May 21 08:27 CST 2001 [RELATED]

The o/d switch in the shifter activates the relay in the relay panel, which in turn operates the o/d solenoid and places you either in or out of o/d. If anything in this circuit is faulty, then your o/d may have problems. In your case, start with the relay, then look at the wiring and connectors to the o/d solenoid, then the solenoid itself. Perhaps the switch is faulty as well. By the way, the only time you need the switch is when you want to stay in 3rd gear.
