Re: Overdrive Relay 700 1987

Noel,

i also suggest you use the Don Foster resolder routine first.

Today i fixed (resoldered) 3 fuel pump relays for my 760 GLE.

I can use them all again.

The OD-relay is very easy to open.

mark the sides first with a felttip pen for future re-assembly

Take a small screwdriver and press it between the bottomsides where the little clips are holding down the bottompart.

You just slide of the protective cover.

All you have to do now is taking a 30 W solderinggun and let all solderingplaces become "fluid" fot a short while.

Especially the fixation of the relaymountings is important.

re-assemble and try it out.

If the OD is still not working you have two possibilities:

The relay is not soldered correctly or you have an interrupted wire connection in the wiring from the OD-switch in the shifting handle to the connector underneath the dash (fusebox).

Usely the wire-break is in the spot where the wires leave the wireprotection coming out of the shifting handle.

You have to dismantle the lowerdash part to reach this location.

See the FAQ-part for further details
