Thanks for the responses. From the Groton site, it looks like the
relay is simple enough to pull out and plug back in / replace:by
myself.

Getting one soon is a factor, as well as the other potentials. I have

Subject:89 volvo 240 dl overdrive lite

Question
My overdrive light stays on and the tranny will not shift into 4th
gear. I had the catalytic converter replaced recently and some other
emmisions work done the car. This problem happened soon after,
coincidense? I'm trying to sell the car, can the car run like this?

Answer
they may have knocked the connector loose for the overdive solenoid on
the transmission,or it may be a bad overdrive relay.check the wire
under the car on the drivvers side of trans. if this is ok I would
replace the relay
