OD RELAY problem 740GL 700

Thanks for the responses so far. I should give a little more detail about the problem with the od arrow coming on. The arrow will come on at random. Today I started it up for the 1st time in a couple days and the arrow was on. I tried turning it off with the switch on the shifter but that wouldn't work, still on. Drove around a little bit then shut car off. Later my wife went somewhere in it. When she started it up, the arrow went off after a few seconds with the other dash lights and never came back on after driving for a half hour. This is usually the intermittant operation that I experience. Most of the time it doesn't come on, but every now and then it does. The location of that relay is terrible too! How does the little box above the ash tray pull out? I gave up on that and just reached my hand back in there. I will crawl under the car tomorrow and look for the wires from the shifter switch to the solonoid and make sure the wiring is in good shape. I also like the flow chart of the od operation that was posted. Thanks again!
