    Re: Overdrive issues

    1st thing both of you should do (if you haven't already) is disconnect the OD thermo switch (picture above). If that doesn't fix, then check to see if voltage is present at the solenoid with the OD turned on. If there's no voltage, then replacing the solenoid won't help (unless you're replacing with one of those bypass devises). Tim
